The sun has opened up my eyes
And I don't want to leave your side
For that lonesome road
But here I go
Climbing back behind the wheel of
50 feet of chrome and steel and a load
They need in Chicago
Through the middle of the night unknown
I'm on a ride that won't let me go

(Chorus:)
I'm an asphalt cowboy
Born to run underneath the stars
Pay no mind to my lonely heart
I just ride, ride
'Til I'm back in your arms again
I'll be out here on the wind

Sometimes late at night
I see you picture by the dashboard light
And it takes me
Where I'd like to be
Wrapped up in a blanket there
Pulling ribbons from you hair and your kiss
Girl that's what I miss
Still I drive these horses throught the rain and snow
This high-speed rodeo is all I kno

(Chorus:)
I'm an asphalt cowboy
Born to run underneath the stars
Pay no mind to my lonely heart
I just ride, ride
'Til I'm back in your arms again
I'll be out here on the wind

And I'll ride
'Til I'm back in your arms again
I'll be out here on the wind
And I'll ride
Through the middle of the night unknown
I'm on a ride that won't let me go
