EASY RIDE
Written by Herb Pedersen
As sung by Herb Pedersen on "Lonesome Feeling" (1984)


Ch. It's an easy ride from good times to the blues
I've been driving that old highway flashing signs to help me
choose
Well I know I've done you wrong
Didn't take me long
It's an easy ride from good times to the blues

1. Driving ninety-nine and making time
Hauling for the Red Ball line
A hundred thousand hours behind the wheel
With a little smile from you
The rig is running thru
Took me fifty nights alone to make me feel

Ch.

2. Starlight Cafe out in sixty four
Waitress said she'd offer more
The sun was going down in her life too
Strong coffee and a tin pot lover
Looking to the rooms to cover
My early morning thoughts roll back to you

I've been riding hard and my wheels call your name
San Antone you summer love how could it be the same

Ch

You old gray mare you wait
Said I were no saint
If you can live with that your way you'll be again
