Текст Greg Graffin – Shotgun

If I had a dollar for each time you let me down
Then I’d have been a rich man long ago
But the thing with lofty notions is you gotta let them go
Relieve yourself of proof, believe in higher truth

Heading out with you behind the wheel is like a poem
I hold my tongue and exercise restraint
That old familiar road house always puts us in a mood
Just as we cross the track, I watch you knock ’em back
And tho’ we see those city lights, instead we hit the sack
And I only ride shotgun for you!

Highways bring on loneliness but I won’t beg forgiveness
‘Cuz that is where I’m happiest to be; with you there next to me!

So send them my regard in that dark and moldy bar
Now I won’t have to gamble ‘cuz that’s always where you are
But like a shooting star, I’m useless from afar
So I’m blazing for glory to come get you in my car
And darling, you know my aim is true
‘Cuz I only ride shotgun for you
