Night Ride Home

[Verse 1]
Once in a while, in a big blue moon
There comes a night like this
Like some surrealist invented this
Fourth of July night ride home

[Verse 2]
Hula girls and caterpillar
Tractors in the sand
The ukulele man, the fireworks
This Fourth of July night ride home

[Chorus]
I love the man beside me
We love the open road
No phones 'til Friday
Far from the overkill, far from the overload

[Verse 3]
Back at the bar, the band tears down
But out here in the headlight beams
The silver power lines gleam
On this Fourth of July night ride home

[Verse 4]
Round the curve and a big dark horse
Red taillights on his hide
Is keeping right alongside, rev for stride
Fourth of July night ride home

[Chorus]
I love the man beside me
We love the open road
No phones 'til Friday
Far from the undertow, far from the overload

[Verse 1]
Once in awhile, in a big blue moon
There comes a night like this
Like some surrealist invented this
Fourth of July night ride home

[Outro]
Night ride home
Night ride home
