We Ride
Letra:
[English]
Well, I've been known to write a few songs
Lovin' and leavin' and gettin' too stoned
Bottle and a pistol by my side
The devil's always along for the ride
We ride down to the creek by the water
I've been baptized by the preacher's daughter
Lucky for me, how he never caught us though
Oh we ride to the bar by the levee
'85 jacked up, square body Chevy
Blanket in the back, when it gets hot and heavy, oh
Oh, we ride pedal to the floorboard
She beggin' for more, slippin' on apple pie
Moonshine
And I'll be gone by the mornin' light
Yeah, 'cause I've been known to write a few songs
Lovin' and leavin' and gettin' too stoned
Bottle and a pistol by my side
Devil's always along for the ride
We ride
Across state lines
Rubbin' two nickels, just tryin' to make a dime
Hard to make a livin' while the gas is so high
Oh, we ride
Like a Harley on a two-lane
Palomino cross plane
Drop it down to four-wheel drive, on a Friday night
Crackin' open a cold Bud Light
Oh, we ride
Pushin' through the hard love
Lookin' for my give-a-fuck
Needle peggin' 95, but that's alright
'Cause I'm runnin' every red light
Yeah, 'cause I've been known to write a few songs
Lovin' and leavin' and gettin' too stoned
Bottle and a pistol by my side
Devil's always along for the ride
Oh, we ride
Oh, we ride
Yeah, 'cause I've been known to write a few songs
Lovin' and leavin' and gettin' too stoned
Bottle and a pistol by my side
Devil's always along for the ride
Yeah, I've been known to write a few songs
Lovin' and leavin' and gettin' too stoned
Bottle and a pistol by my side
Devil's always along for that ride
Oh, along for that ride
The devil's always along for that ride
