from Song A Week, Volume 6 by James Tristan Redding

about

Co-written with Pete & Pat Luboff.

lyrics

Knuckles turnin' white 'cuz I'm holdin' on too tight
To my worn out steerin' wheel
But ain't no sense in sweatin' this old road knows where it's headed
Doesn’t matter how I feel

Let it ride let it roll let it wander where it goes
Let it ride trust my gut and give it time
Let it lead let it be anything it wants to be
It’s alright just let it ride

Only got myself to blame tryin' to change what I can't change
Same old lesson every time
And I cover way more miles when I coast a little while
I gotta' learn to let it ride

Let it ride let it roll let it wander where it goes
Let it ride trust my gut and give it time
Let it lead let it be anything it wants to be
It’s alright just let it ride

The rearview mirror shows the disappearing road
But it won't ever know where the highway goes

Let it ride let it roll let it wander where it goes
Let it ride trust my gut and give it time
Let it lead let it be anything it wants to be
It’s alright just let it ride
