Shotgun Rider

When the sun comes up. I got to leave this town

But I love you layin' here with me

I'd like to stay but I can't hang around

So if you'd like to come with me

And me my shotgun rider, my love provider

I feel so lonely on the road

Be my shotgun rider, sweet love provider

And be my shelter from the pain and cold

Well, that's the way I live, I like to travel light

And I've done my lovin' on the run

I don't know what you did to me

But I know you did it right

Baby, please don't stop, we've just begun

And me my shotgun rider, my love provider

I need you with me down the road

So be my shotgun rider, sweet love provider

And be my shelter from the pain and cold

Shotgun rider, shotgun rider
