Eighteen years on this old farm
The world outside is calling
And if stay just one more day
My roots just might start growing
I’m gonna ride on
Gonna ride on
Sorry father, mother, sister, and brother, gonna ride on instead
Five long years been workin' here
World under my feet turning
So much to do before I lose my youth
And get too tired of running
I’m gonna ride on
Gonna ride on
All my best to you my dears, gonna ride on instead
Girl you been so nice and kind
But I just can't settle my ramblin' mind
Hate to see you cry but comes a time
For me to be on my way
I’m gonna ride on
Gonna ride on
Sorry babe, know you want me to stay, gonna ride on instead
I see that clock hanging on the wall
The hands just keep on spinning
Spinning like a wheel, they're driving me
Toward the gates of the great divine
I’m gonna ride on
Gonna ride on
Goodbye father, mother, sister, and brother, gonna ride on instead
Ain't no more in this world to do
And no sense in waiting, waiting
Know I'm gonna miss you and I didn't quit you
I'll see you on the other side
I’m gonna ride on
Gonna ride on
Sorry father, mother, sister, and brother, gonna ride on instead
Gonna keep on riding
Keep on riding
Sorry father, brother, sister, mother, gonna ride on instead
