The fire, the wine, the bed and you
In this crimson light I find the truth
And truth is like a punch or two
It hits you hard, it knocks you throughSo I get on the road and ride to you
I get on the road and ride to youKiss like a fight that neither wins
One tender payment for our sins
You are the drug that I can't quit
Your perfect chaos is a perfect fitSo I get on the road and ride to you
I get on the road and ride to youFrom broken farm to broken farm
The engine noise like an alarm
It breathes a thunder in my soul
Its starts this race through the dust bowlSo I get on the road and ride to you
I get on the road and ride to youThe wheel it settles in my hand
This is the measure of this man
I point the car at north, at you
The route has scarred this country throughSo I get on the road and ride to you
I get on the road and ride to you
I get on the road and ride to you
I get on the road and ride to you
