Marty Stuart - One More Ride Lyrics
Written by B. NolanI long for a trip, I don't need no grip, I'm takin' one more rideWay out there in the prairie air, I guess it's in my hideFor the clickity-clack of the railroad track is callin'If a man can know where the Santa Fe goes, when she gets under steamAnd the big loud bell that bongs farewell, could hear her whistle screamHe's bound to go where there ain't no snow a-fallin'One more rideOne more rideI miss the gloom, of the pale white moon that seemed to know my nameAnd the tumbleweed, where the prairie dog feed, I miss them just the sameThey're all a part of the song of heart I'm singin'I recall the tune that I sang to the moon, and it seemed to make it smileAnd I rode away at the close of day and stayed so long in a whileBut I long to be where the memory is ringin'One more rideOne more rideAs the years go by I wonder why I long to leave my homeAnd to hit the trail of the iron rail away out there aloneBut my heart will sigh, 'til I know that I am leavin'If I don't come back on a one-way track way down in MexicoYou can find me there or any old where that tumbleweed will growIt's goodbye now, you'll never know I'm grievingOne more rideOne more rideOne more rideOne more ride
