[Christopher Cross]
It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time for sleep
I've got to ride
Ride
like the wind
To be free again
I was born the son
Of a lawless man
Always spoke my mind
With a 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
To make it to the border of
Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
Accused and tried and
Told to hang
I was nowhere in sight
When
the church bells rang
Never was the kind
To do as I was told
Gonna ride like the wind
Before I get old
And I've got
such a long way to go
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
So I'll ride like the
wind
Ride like the wind
It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time for sleep
I've got to ride
Ride
like the wind
To be free again
And I've got such a long way to go
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the
wind
Ride like the wind
And I've got such a long way to go
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the
wind
Ride like the wind
