Let Me Ride Lyrics
I've been on the road now for a day and a night
I've been lonesome and hungry for miles
I've seen how you people been lookin your lies
I'm gonna kill y'all with your own smiles
But I wish that y'all could get a look at the news
And see what the man's puttin down
Well I gotta hold a one yesterday night
And they threw me outta this town, oh yeah
Well it's gonna be awhile before I get home
But when I do that's the end of my roamin
Cause I've been gone a lifetime and I can't believe
That the people I trust still can deceive
By the time I get back here things have to change
Cause if they don't there's gonna be alot of strange
Lookin people marchin round, clappin their hands
And they won't stop till everyone understands
Oh yeah
Let me ride, let me ride
Let me ride now, let me ride now, yeah
Livin's just like sleepin
Why is life not like a dream
Now the dawn is weepin
Another sunlight sees
Oh I've been here too long now
I got to go outside
Ya people gotta let me ride
Let me ride, ride, ride
I got to feel free inside (4x)
(solo)
Ya people gotta let me ride
Let me ride, ride, ride
I gotta feel free inside (4x)
I've been lonesome and hungry for miles
I've seen how you people been lookin your lies
I'm gonna kill y'all with your own smiles
But I wish that y'all could get a look at the news
And see what the man's puttin down
Well I gotta hold a one yesterday night
And they threw me outta this town, oh yeah
Well it's gonna be awhile before I get home
But when I do that's the end of my roamin
Cause I've been gone a lifetime and I can't believe
That the people I trust still can deceive
Cause if they don't there's gonna be alot of strange
Lookin people marchin round, clappin their hands
And they won't stop till everyone understands
Let me ride, let me ride
Let me ride now, let me ride now, yeah
Why is life not like a dream
Now the dawn is weepin
Another sunlight sees
Oh I've been here too long now
I got to go outside
Ya people gotta let me ride
I got to feel free inside (4x)
Let me ride, ride, ride
I gotta feel free inside (4x)

the man is traveling and he is saying how stupid and fake america is, no one tells the truth and everyone is just smiling even though they know how wrong everything is. so people ignore the problem and he wants to go home and when he does he is never gonna leave, because when he is home everyone is nice, but even they arent totally real. everyone is fake because no one does anything for anyone else, hes hungry and lonesome because everyone is to busy looking out for them selves and "there are gonna be alot of strange people clappin there hands and they wonts stop till everyone understands" means that everyone wants things focused on them and they are goin to get what they want. "living is just like sleeping why is life not like a dream" why cant life be perfect. by letting him ride he means that some one finalyy succumbed to not being selfish.
