The sun has opened up my eyes
And I don`t wanna leave your side
For that lonesome road but here I go
Climbing back behind the wheel
Of fifty feet of chrome and steel
And a load they need in Chicago
Through the middle of the night unknown
I`m on a ride that won`t let me go

I`m an asphalt cowboy
Born to run underneath the stars
Pay no mind to my lonely heart
Just ride. ride
`Til I`m back in your arms again
I`ll be out here on the wind

Sometimes late at night
I see your picture by the dashboard light
And it takes me where I`d like to be
Wrapped up in a blanket there
Pulling ribbons from your hair
And your kiss. Girl. that`s what I miss
Still I drive these horses through the rain and snow
This high-speed rodeo is all I know

And I`m an asphalt cowboy
Born to run underneath the stars
Pay no mind to my lonely heart
Just ride. ride
`Til I`m back in your arms again
I`ll be out here on the wind

And I`ll ride
Until I`m back in your arms again
I`ll be out here on the wind

And I`ll ride
Through the middle of the night unknown
On a ride that won`t let me go
