Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y-You know how you do it man
It's a trip people don't even believe were together right now (wow)
Bu-bu-but tell Your story, you know the one I like, say it for me (Ride, ride, ride)
Riders on the storm
(Ride, ride, ride)
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
(Into this house we're born)
Into this world we're thrown
(Into this world we're thrown)
Like a dog without a bone (Like a dog without a bone)
An actor out on loan (An actor out on loan)
Riders on the storm
(Ride, ride, ride)
There's a killer on the road
(Killer, Murder)
His brain is squirmin' like a toad
Take a long holiday

Sweet family will die (Die)
Killer on the road

Sweet family will die
Killer on the road

In "Riders on the Storm," Snoop Dogg collaborates with the rock band The Doors and their lead vocalist, Jim Morrison. The song starts with Snoop requesting Jim Morrison to tell him one of his stories, and then the two artists start talking about driving fast cars and being riders.
The lyrics of the song speak about the journey of life and its difficulties. For instance, the line "Like a dog without a bone, An actor out on loan" describes the feeling of being lost and without direction in life. "Riders on the Storm" refers to the people who go through life's journey, facing various struggles and difficulties along the way. There is also a dark side to the song, with the line "There's a killer on the road, his brain is squirmin' like a toad," hinting at the presence of danger and evil in the world.
