Riding Lyrics
Where you going riding, boy? \
I'm gonna ride on down to see you / x 2
Where you going riding, boy?
All dressed up and with that look of joy
Where you going riding, boy?
I'm gonna ride on down to see you
Who you gonna ride with, boy? \
I'm gonna bring my sister Lisa / x 2
Who you gonna ride with, boy?
All dressed up and with that look of joy
Who you gonna ride with, boy?
I'm gonna bring my sister Lisa
Because I love my sister Lisa
I love my sister Lisa
I love my sister Lisa most of all
Don't you know that that's sinful, boy \
God is what I make of Him / x 2
I'm long since dead and I live in Hell
She's the only girl that I love well
We were raised together and together we fell
God is what I make of Him
And all I have I give to Him
All I own I owe to Him
All my life I pledge to Him
The devil is asking him where he's riding, and he tells the devil he and his sister are sexing, so they'll be riding their horses into hell to see him. The devil asks if he knows that's a sin, and he basically says that on earth his life belongs to god, and he feels he's still devoting his life to god while "sinning" with his sister because god is what he makes of him, and he's willing to enjoy his sister while he's alive, as long as he also knows he'll have to answer for it when he goes down to see the devil.
Maybe he's also saying, if god is what I make of him, why shouldn't the devil be what I make of him as well? And why not.
