I've been on the road now for a day and a night
I've been lonesome and hungry for miles
I've seen how you people been lookin' your lies
I'm gonna kill y'all with your own smiles But I wish that y'all could get a look at the news
And see what the man's puttin' down
Well, I gotta hold a one yesterday night
And they threw me outta this town, oh yeah Well, it's gonna be awhile before I get home
But when I do that's the end of my roamin'
'Cause I've been gone a lifetime and I can't believe
That the people I trust still can deceive By the time I get back here things have to change
'Cause if they don't there's gonna be a lot of strange
Lookin' people, marchin' round, clappin' their hands
And they won't stop till everyone understands Oh yeah, let me ride, let me ride
Let me ride now, let me ride now, yeah Livin's just like sleepin', why is life not like a dream
Now the dawn is weepin', another sunlight sees
Oh, I've been here too long now
I got to go outside, ya people gotta let me ride Let me ride, ride, ride, I got to feel free inside
Let me ride, ride, ride, I got to feel free inside
Let me ride, ride, ride, I got to feel free inside
Let me ride, ride, ride, I got to feel free inside Ya people gotta let me ride
Let me ride, ride, ride, I gotta feel free inside
Ya people gotta let me ride
Let me ride, ride, ride, I gotta feel free inside Ya people gotta let me ride
Let me ride, ride, ride, I gotta feel free inside
Ya people gotta let me ride
Let me ride, ride, ride, I gotta feel free inside
