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

Wait a minute!
Ride like the wind?
Yeah right, that guy rides more like a snail that's been run over by a truck!
Christopher Cross? I think not!

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
Ride like the wind?
Yeah right, that guy rides more like a snail that's been run over by a truck!
Christopher Cross? I think not!

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

Ride like the wind?
I don't think so, that guy rides more like a snail that's been run over by a truck!
Christopher Cross? I think not!

Accused and tried and told to hang
I was nowhere in sight when the chuchbells rang
Never was the kind to do as I was told
Gonna ride like the wind before I get old
Ride like the wind?
Not likely, that guy rides more like a snail that's been run over by a truck!
Christopher Cross? I think not!
