I ride alone through the roads that haunt me

I ride alone back home to the country breeze

Back where I feel free

On the run from the big city

I ride alone where the sun don't shine and the lights aren't bright

I ride alone, guided only by the stars at night

Where the southern wind feels right

And my baby holds me tight

Oh, I ride alone like a bandit running from the lawman

I ride alone with a Colt 45 in my hand

Make my way through the land

I'll try to make you understand why I ride alone

Oh, I ridе alone through the burnt-down body of a ghost town

I ride alonе like an unfit king stripped of my crown

Never knowing up from down

Forever spinning 'round and 'round

I ride alone in the darkness looking for a sunrise

I ride alone with a glimpse of hope in my eyes

Waiting for a big surprise

To get a little peace of mind

Oh, I ride alone

I ride alone

I ride alone

I ride alone

I ride alone, Colt 45 in my hand

I ride alone, make my way through the promised land

I ride alone in the darkness looking for a sunrise

I ride alone with a glimpse of hope in my eyes

Waiting for a big surprise

I ride alone to get a little peace of mind

I ride alone, never knowing up from down

I ride alone

I ride alone like a bandit running from the lawman

I ride alone with a Colt 45 in my hand

Make my way through the land

I'll try to make you understand why I ride alone

Why I ride alone

(I ride alone, never knowing up from down)

(I ride alone, forever spinning 'round and 'round)

Why I ride alone
