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...
