Song Lyrics

Two wheels a turning
One girl a yearning
Big motor burning the road

I'll ride the highway
I'm going my way
I'll leave a story untold

Pretty girls behind me but pretty girls are everywhere
Big motor wind up, ride away from here

Ride away

She won't approve of things I do or what I am
And I don't really give a... I understand
But she'll never see that I'll never be
Any one but me

She thinks she needs me, she cries for me
But I know she's lying, crying for others to see
What can I say, I'll just ride away

Big motor run, run, (background), ride ride away.
Ride on away from big motor run run
Heart-ache and misery

I'm bound to wander
Way over yonder
Someone be waiting just for me

True love to cling to, I need a dream to share
Someone to know me, Someone to show me they care

Ride away, ride away
From tears and sorrow
Like there's no tomorrow

Tonight I'll ride away

Bill Dees, Roy Orbison
