INTRO: 2x VERSE: 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 got 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. VERSE: 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 got 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 like the wind. BREAK: 2x VERSE: Accused and tried and told to hang I was no where 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. VERSE: 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 got 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 got 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 like the wind. OUTRO: Ride Ride like the wind Ride........... -FADE
