Allman Brothers Band - Let Me Ride Lyrics
By dickey betts(c) 1990 cbs records, inc.Transcribed by matt dickieWell now times got hardAnd I didnt draw the card I neededSo I proceeded to bang it on down the lineHitchhike, turnpikeAnd if you got room wont you let me ride?Just as far as youre goingAnd lord knowing Ill be much obliged.There was a light rain fallingI started recalling how lonesome a man can beFeeling a chill when over the hillCame a brand new baby blue cadillacStop on a dimeI threw my guitar in the back and I climbed insideBig blue eyes said hey boy dont you want a ride?I said to birmingham, alabama,Or to nashville tennessee will do just fine with me.Dont you know what I mean?Im coming from new orleans.Now hey, [na na.]Mama wont you let me ride?Well now black fur coat, diamond ringShining like something I aint ever seen.My old guitar and a roadside bar.Walked in the door looking like a movie queenThere was a honky tonk jukebox, hardwood floorShe said I aint ever seen nothing like this before.I said, thats all right, mama wont you let me ride?On down to birmingham, alabama,Or to nashville tennessee wiil do fine with me.Dont you know what I mean?Im coming from new orleans.Now hey, [na na.]Mama wont you let me ride?
