Ridin' High

Lyrics: Bill Cutler
Music: Bill Cutler

Sung by Bob Weir on Matt Kelly's album A Wing And A Prayer.

Roll me easy
And rock me slow
'Cause I've been down by the water side
Made my evening glow

I'm in no hurry
You know I got nowhere to go
Not a care, not a worry in mind
To keep me feeling low

Oh me, oh my
I've been ridin' so high
I'll be awake till the dawn
And I won't close my eyes
Till that old sunrise
Drifts me to sleep with a song

Oh wheel of fortune
Spin and flow
'Cause your strange plans
And fate's swift hand
I guess we'll never know

Oh me, oh my
I've been ridin' so high
I'll be awake till the dawn
And I won't close my eyes
Till that old sunrise
Drifts me to sleep with a song

Rocks me to sleep with a song
Rolls me to sleep with a song
Ridin' high
Oh me,oh my
It ain't no lie
Just wanna say it's been sweet flying by
[well now rock me]
Roll me easy
[well now roll me]
Rock me slow
[well now rock me]
I got nowhere to run
[well now roll me]
Slipping and sliding now
[you and I]
Little darling now
[drifting by]
With your lovelight shining
