Along For The Ride (’56 T-Bird)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I had a '56 T-Bird Man, I was king of the highway Tryin' to make it look fast and easy Dreamin' of doin' it my way Let's put the top down, baby Feel the wind in our hair We were too young to know better And too cool to care [Chorus] All I wanted was you by my side Baby, you were only along for the ride Only along for the ride [Verse 2] Rock and roll on the radio Let's turn it up and get down Convertible dreams runnin' wild in the streets In the all-time American town When you played the thrill queen, baby I heard the jazz of joy You were every girl in the world But I wasn't every boy [Chorus] All I wanted was you by my side Baby, you were only along for the ride All I wanted was you by my side Baby, you were only along for the ride Only along for the ride [Saxophone Solo] [Bridge] Memory pink and charcoal gray Are the colors I painted this song You were nineteen and perfect, baby But no one stays perfect too long [Chorus] All I wanted was you by my side Baby, you were only along for the ride All I wanted was you by my side Baby, you were only along for the ride All I wanted was you by my side Baby, you were only along for the ride All I wanted was you by my side Baby, you were only along for the ride All I wanted was you by my side Baby, you were only along for the ride
