Asphalt Cowboy

[Verse 1:]
The sun has opened up my eyes
And I do not want to leave your side
For that lonesome road but here I go
Climbing back behind the wheel
Of 50 feet of chrome and steel
And a load they need in Chicago
Through the middle of the night unknown
I am on a ride that would not let me go.

[Chorus:]
I am an asphalt cowboy
Born to run underneath the stars
Pay no mind to my lonely heart
I just ride ride
Till I am back in your arms again
I will be out here on the wind.

[Verse 2:]
And sometimes late at night
I see your picture by the dashboard light
And it takes me where I would like to be
Wrapped up in a blanket there
Pulling ribbons from your hair and your kiss
Girl that is what I miss
Still I drive these horses through the rain and snow
This high-speed rodeo is all I know.

[Chorus:]
I am an asphalt cowboy
Born to run underneath the stars
Pay no mind to my lonely heart
I just ride ride
Till I am back in your arms again
I will be out here on the wind.

[Outro:]
And I will ride
Till I am back in your arms again
I will be out here on the wind
And I will ride
Through the middle of the night unknown
I am on a ride that would not let me go.
