Slide Over Backwards

Lyrics

[Intro] Ooh, ooh, oh, oh Mmm, mmm, mmm Ride over backwards Ride over backwards Ride over backwards Ride over backwards, haha [Verse 1] I was just a little girl A-making my own way Sixteen years or more I had Nothing left to say I raised myself up almost Lived on po'boys, too New Orleans ain't a place to live If you never been to school And I says [Chorus] Ride over backwards Slide over backwards Ride over backwards Let me ride (People gotta tell ya) Slide over backwards (Oh) Slide over backwards Ride over backwards Let me ride (Haha) [Verse 2] Daddy was a working man He worked since he was five He dropped his wings on my train one day And never learned to fly I wonder what it takes to be Someone who knows why The earth ain't round unless you can Teach yourself to fly And I says [Chorus] Ride over backwards (Woo, yeah) Slide over backwards Slide over backwards (Oh, oh Lord) Let me ride (People, gotta tell ya) Slide over backwards Slide over backwards (Sometimes you got to be free) Slide over backwards Let me ride [Bridge] Every single lifetime you gotta be strong Some days in a lifetime you gotta be brave Dig, get on your knees sometimes And sometimes you even gotta pray [Outro] Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, what it is (Oh Lord, yeah) Sometimes, sometimes I feel like I'm going down (Oh Lord, yes) Going down, going down for the very last time Don't know what it is, don't know what it is Sometimes, sometimes I feel like going down Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, what it is Sometimes, sometimes I feel like I'm going down Going down, going down for the very last time Sometimes I feel like going down Down in my heart I pray Ride over backwards (Let me ride) Slide over backwards Ride over backwards (Ride) Let me ride Ride over backwards (Ride) Let me ride (Ride) Let me ride
