(verse)
Walking to the classroom sticking pencils in the ceiling tiles.
A group of boys together through hell for a country mile.
Huffy bikes and racing home way before the street lights ever come on.
We grew up way too fast, but we continue this song.
(2 verse)
Building on our hot rods way past suppertime.
Fighting with daddy cause we didn’t want to toe the line.
He put us out but we somehow knew that we would always find our own way…
And so far….
(chorus)
It’s been one hell of a ride with my brother sitting by my side.
Out running the law too many fights on a Friday night.
Chasing women ,drag racing ,country roads until the morning light.
Bonfires in the backyard, whiskey on the river Banks-
Living life on the edge of the line and I wouldn’t change a thing-
And all I can say is, it’s been one hell of a ride.
(3 verse)
I signed up with the army and then I started to roam.
All my friends got jobs now raising kids of their own.
But life has a way of coming full circle, taking you right back to where you belong.
Although the roads in seasons change, some things always remain the same.
(chorus)
It’s been one hell of a ride with my brother sitting by my side.
Out running the law and too many fights on a Friday night.
Chasing women, drag racing, country roads till the morning light.
Bonfires in the backyard, whiskey on the riverbanks-
Living life on the edge of the line and I wouldn’t change a thing-
And all I can say, it’s been one hell of a ride.
(4 verse)
I went to a funeral late last Tuesday night.
It had me thinking about life and all I’ve done wrong or right.
If I had a chance to change anything before it’s my time to go, would I write this song differently?
And my answer is still hell no.
Because….
(chorus)
It’s been one hell of a ride with my brother sitting by my side.
Out running the law and too many fights on Friday night.
Chasing women, drag racing, country roads until the morning light.
Bonfires in the backyard, whiskey on the riverbanks-
Live in life on the edge of the line and I wouldn’t change a thing-
And all I can say is…
It’s been one hell of a ride
