Joy Ride
It's getting close to sundown
Over the Sierra
Stranded on the heatwave
Burning with desire
She was on the sidewalk
Looking for a night light
We talked about the real things
And drove into the fire
Headlights on the highway
The desert wind is howling
Rattlesnakes and romance
Are spilling with the rain
Candy apple red dress
Bleeding when she kissed me
Heaven in a ragtop
Take away my pain
When your chips are down
When your highs are low
Joy ride
Move across the night
Like a separate wind
Joy ride
Pulled up to a motel
"Vacancy" was buzzing
Pink and dirty neon
Settled on the hood
Wrap your arms around me
Come a little closer
Stumble in the twilight
And fell onto the floor
Loving Mona Lisa
Dreaming of the free world
Lipstick on the nightstand
And demons at the door
When your chips are down
When your highs are low
Joy ride
Move across the night
Like a separate wind
Joy ride
When your hopes and dreams
Loose the will to go
Joy ride
Reaching for the light
Woman we can win
Joy ride
There's something in the distance
A glorious existence
A simple celebration
A place you've never been before
Tell me that you wanna go
Reaching for the light
Woman we can win
When your chips are down
When your highs are low
Joy ride
All your hopes and dreams
All you need to know
Joy ride
