Always Riding

As I finish up the bottle and open up the throttle And I leave this place It's gonna be a real fight and it don't seem right To never see your face We rode so many miles, crossed all the country lines Man, we've been all around Sunglasses hide my tears And I'm blazing From Texas to Daytona Back up to South Dakota back in '78 Leap frogging white lines Bar-hopping all the time Those times were great Good times or bad The road we always had as our safe bet And all those memories you know I'll never forget Always riding beside me I'll never ever be alone Always riding beside me The road is my only home Always riding beside me Yeah On your final ride You'd been a million times on the devil's belt I'd give anything brother to trade you with another The hand you were dealt I know I'll see you again And we'll ride in the end My only friend But 'til the reaper pulls my number Man, I'll never see you again Always riding beside me I'll never ever be alone Always riding beside me The road is my only home Always riding beside me Yeah I've been through all the stages Denial through to rages Since the day you left There's too much noise Just wanna hear your voice In this blacked out mess I laid down the patch when I scattered your ashes Watched you drift away I'll cross them county lines, I'll ride all those miles Again and again and again Always riding beside me I'll never ever be alone Always riding beside me The road is my only home Always riding beside me Yeah
