I'm on the run, no time for sleep
I've got to ride, ride like the wind
To be free again
And I've got such a long way to go
(Such a long way to go)
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
I was born the son of a lawless man
Always spoke my mind
With a gun in my hand
Lived nine lives, gunned down ten
Gonna ride like the wind
And I've got such a long way to go
(Such a long way to go)
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind, ride like the wind
Gonna ride the wind
Accused and tried and told to hang
I was nowhere in sight
When the church bells rang
Never was the kind to do as I was told
Gonna ride like the wind before I get old
It is the night, my body's weak
I'm on the run, no time for sleep
I've got to ride, ride like the wind
To be free again
And I've got such a long way to go
(Such a long way to go)
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
And I've a long way to go
(Such a long way to go)
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind, ride like the wind
Gonna ride the wind
Ride, ride like the wind
Ride
It is the night, my body's weak I'm on the run, no time for sleep I've got to ride, ride like the wind To be free again And I've got such a long way to go (Such a long way to go) To make it to the border of Mexico So I'll ride like the wind Ride like the wind I was born the son of a lawless man Always spoke my mind With a gun in my hand Lived nine lives, gunned down ten Gonna ride like the wind And I've got such a long way to go (Such a long way to go) To make it to the border of Mexico So I'll ride like the wind, ride like the wind Gonna ride the wind Accused and tried and told to hang I was nowhere in sight When the church bells rang Never was the kind to do as I was told Gonna ride like the wind before I get old It is the night, my body's weak I'm on the run, no time for sleep I've got to ride, ride like the wind To be free again And I've got such a long way to go (Such a long way to go) To make it to the border of Mexico So I'll ride like the wind Ride like the wind And I've a long way to go (Such a long way to go) To make it to the border of Mexico So I'll ride like the wind, ride like the wind Gonna ride the wind Ride, ride like the wind Ride Explain Request ×
