VERSE I It is the night My body's weak I'm on the run No time to sleep I've got to ride Ride like the wind To be free again CHORUS I 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 ride like the wind, ride like the wind VERSE II 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 CHORUS II (repeat chorus 1) BRIDGE Gonna ride like the wind VERSE III 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 (repeat verse 1) CHORUS III (repeat chorus 1) EPILOUGE Gonna ride like the wind Ride Gonna ride like the wind Ride
