Night Ride Home

Once in a while in a big blue moon

There comes a night like this

Like some surrealist

Invented this 4th of July

Night ride home

Hula girls

And Caterpillar tractors in the sand

The ukulele man

The fireworks, this 4th of July

And night ride home

I love the man beside me

We love the open road

No phones till Friday

Far from the overkill

Far from the overload

Back at the bar, the band tears down

But out here in the headlight beams

The silver power lines

Gleam on this 4th of July

And night ride home

Round the curve and a big dark horse

Red taillights on his hide

Is keeping right alongside

Rev for stride, 4th of July

Night ride home

I love the man beside me

We love the open road

No phones till Friday

Far from the undertow

Far from the overload

Once in a while in a big blue moon

There comes a night like this

Like some surrealist

Invented this 4th of July

Night ride home

Night ride home

Night ride home

On a night ride home

On a night ride home
