Ride With Me
Blackeyed Susan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We said goodbye
A long cold night ahead
And then you cry
I said walk with me, talk to me
Take my hand to the man
All the sounds, what we found
Baby, we'll find a way
We've got this far
Girl, I know how you feel
This thing called love
So come on, ride on, ride on
Ride with me
So come on, ride on, ride on
Ride with me
I'd give you anything you want
Lovin' just your heart
Would you love me if I were poor
I'd love you more
I said walk with me, talk to me
Take my hand to the man
All the sounds, what we found
It's you I found
Baby, we got it made
When times get hard
Girl, I know how it feels
It hurts to love
So come on, ride on, ride on
Ride with me
So come on, ride on, ride on
Ride with me
Yeah, yeah, come on
Oh, baby, we'll find a way
We've got this far
Girl, I know how you feel
This thing called love
So come on, ride on, ride on
Ride with me, yeah
Come on, ride on, ride on
Ride with me, baby
Ride on, ride on
Ride with me
Ride on, baby
Ride with me
Ride on, ride on
Ride with me
Ride with me, baby
Oh, whoa, yeah, yeah

In the very competitive world of the Music Business, many great songs can fall through the cracks. Some great recordings can somehow never get the attention they deserve. I worked in the Music Biz for 20 years (1986-2006) and I can say it's criminal that this song: "Ride With Me" was never a big BIG hit. It should have been.
