I've been out on that open road
You can be my full time, daddy
Singing blues has been getting old
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
Dying young and I'm playing hard
That's the way my father made his life an art
Drink all day and we talk 'til dark
That's the way the road doves do it, ride 'til dark.
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
Been tryin' hard not to get in trouble, but I
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
I'm tired of feeling like I'm f-ck-n crazy
I'm tired of driving 'till I see stars in my eyes
I look up to hear myself saying,
Baby, too much I strive, I just ride
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
