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
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
I was born the son of a lawless man
Always spoke my mind with my gun in my hand
Lived nine lives
Gunned down ten
Gonna ride like the wind
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
Gonna ride like the wind
Oh, ride like the wind
Oh, ride like the wind
C'mon and hold me
Just like you told me
Then show me
What I want to know
Why don't we steal away
Why don't we steal away
Into the night
I know it ain't right
Into the night
Make it tonight
I caught you glancing my way
And I know what you're after
(No second chances tonight)
Why don't we steal away
Why don't we steal away
Why don't we steal away
Why don't we steal away
Into the night
I know it ain't right
Why don't we steal away
It is the night
Why don't we steal away
I'm on the run
No time to sleep
I've got to ride
Gonna ride like the wind
