Mornin' Ride

There's a quiet time in the early dawn

Before the mornin' paper, before the coffee's on

When there ain't much movin' in the world outside

Oh I'd love to take a mornin' ride

My baby knows it's the time we share

She wakes me gently, brushes back her hair

And she moves into my arms sweet and slow

I can't wait to get up and go

Gonna take my baby on a mornin' ride

When the sun comes slippin' 'round the mountainside

'Bout an hour, maybe two

Ain't nothin' me and her would rather do

Than see the green grass glist'nin' in the mornin' dew

While the world's still damn spankin' new

Oh I know how beautiful the day will be

When she takes a mornin' ride with me

And when we get back, it will feel so right

To just lay back and linger in the mornin' light

Then she'll smile at me, thinkin' where we've been

Wantin' me to take her again

I'm gonna take my baby on a mornin' ride

When the sun comes slippin' 'round the mountainside

For an hour, maybe two

Ain't nothin' me and her would rather do

Than see the green grass glist'nin' in the mornin' dew

While the world's still damn spankin' new

Oh I know how beautiful the day will be

When she takes a mornin' ride with me

Oh I'm gonna take my baby on a mornin' ride

When the sun comes slippin' 'round the mountainside

'Bout an hour, maybe two

Ain't nothin' me and her would rather do
