|
Moving like the fog on the Cumberland River |
|
I was leaving on the Delta Queen |
|
And I wasn't ready to go |
|
I'm never ready to go |
|
27 of nothing but failures and promises that I couldn't keep |
|
Oh lord, I wasn't ready to go |
|
I'm never ready to go |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it ride easy down the road |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it take away all of the darkness |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it rock me in the arms of stranger's angels until it brings me home |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it roll |
|
Let it go |
|
Loaded like a sailor |
|
Tumbling off a ferry boat |
|
I was at the bar till three |
|
Oh Lord, and I wasn't ready to go |
|
I'm never ready to go |
|
Tennessee's a brother to my sister Carolina where they're gonna bury me |
|
And I ain't ready to go |
|
I'm never ready to go |
|
Let it ride let it ride easy down the road |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it take away all of this darkness |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it rock me in the arms of stranger's angels until it brings me home |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it roll |
|
Let it go |
|
I wanna see you tonight |
|
Dancing in the endless moonlight |
|
In the parking lot in the headlights of cars |
|
Someplace on the moon |
|
Where they moved the drive-in theater |
|
Where I left the car that I can't find but I still got the keys to |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it ride easy down the road |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it take away all of this darkness |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it rock me in the arms of stranger's angels until it brings me home |
|
Let it ride |
|
Let it roll |
|
Let it go |
