(Dwight Yoakam)



I walked in

There sat Slim

Cleaning up his memory

With some sapphire gin

Mr. Paine grabbed my arm

Pulled me aside

And said, kid are you ready for the wild ride



I looked up

There she stood

I said, if you didn't look so great

I'd say you look good

Ah, she took her hand

Ran it up my thigh

And said, cowboy you ready for the wild ride



Come on now junior take the wild ride

See can you make it on the wild ride

Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride

'Cause things start breakin' on the wild ride



Layin' on the highway

I saw my mind

In tiny little pieces

Thrown from side to side

My heart was shattered

Along with my pride

Guess you can't keep 'em on the wild ride



Come on now junior take the wild ride

See can you make it on the wild ride

Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride

'Cause things start breakin' on the wild ride



I was crawlin' 'cross the floor

I was tryin' to leave

When I felt something tuggin' what was

Left of my sleeve

I heard a little voice with a

Gold-plated vibe

Say, I bought a ticket for the wild ride



Come on now junior take the wild ride

See can you make it on the wild ride

Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride

We might just break it on the wild ride



Come on now junior take the wild ride

See can you make it on the wild ride

Don't try no shakin' on the wild ride

We might just break it on the wild ride



Come on, Come

Take me on a wild ride

See can you make me on the wild ride

Come on and shake me on the wild ride

You might just break me on the wild ride
