Lyle Lovett - Nothing But A Good Ride lyrics

He's pulling out for Reno He hopes a tire don't blow Up near Albuquerque He'll fuel and get some coffee Cline's Corners truck stop A waitress with a wet mop Telling him to don't walk He tips his hat and don't talk He knows it's nothing but a good ride No there's nothing there he can't slide No there's nothing that he won't spin No there's nothing to it do it again No it's nothing but the big show No there's nowhere that he won't go No he never has to ask why He knows it's nothing but a good ride He says there's something about a sunrise Waking up sleepy eyed He says there's something about a highway Telling him he can't stay He says there's something about a long drive That gives him some peace of mind And there's something that he can't take When he's coming in second place He knows it's nothing but a good ride No there's nothing there he can't slide No there's nothing that he won't spin No there's nothing to it do it again No it's nothing but the big show No there's nowhere that he won't go No he never has to ask why He knows it's nothing but a good ride And when it's all over He'll move a little slower He'll back up to the trailer And look toward Oklahoma He'll pull out right through the middle of town And watch the sun start sinking down Still just lighting up the road signs Getting ready for the next time. He knows it's nothing but a good ride No there's nothing there he can't slide No there's nothing that he won't spin No there's nothing to it do it again No it's nothing but the big show No there's nowhere that he won't go No he never has to ask why He knows it's nothing but a good ride
