Lyrics
Ride For the Roses
Haven?t we been here before?
Well it doesn?t get easier, that?s for sure
No kiss, no cuddle
Permanent paramour
Waited an hour at the door
And the flight up from Austin to Baltimore
You missed: big trouble
Slept on the airport floor
Dreamt you were riding
Fond futures coinciding
On The Ride for the Roses
Sliding sideways through the open window
As another door closes
One glance behind you
Is all you need to see your race is won
Haven?t we been here before?
For the time of your life in the great outdoors
True bliss with stubble
What are you waiting for?
Resting in clover
Chain-ring tattoo, one leg over
On The Ride for the Roses
Sliding sideways through the open window
As another door closes
One glance behind you
Is all you need to see you?ve won
On the Ride?
