Ridin' The Red-Eye Lyrics

You see that grey-haired man by the window He ain't half as old as he looks Barely aware that his wife has left him He won't see his children grow up Chorus: Ridin' the Red-Eye You can't take this ride all the way Ridin' the Red-Eye Whoa, it'll kill you one day You see that girl so young and pretty She don't know she'll be gettin' off soon She'll take anything to stay on the Red-Eye She don't see she's got it all to lose I'm sick and tired of hearin' why I should get on board that old Red-Eye To find myself surrounded By dealers, drunks and wasted lives Overdoses, bitter tears I want a sharp mind and my vision clear Gonna look at life right in the eye Gonna make damn sure it don't pass me by Only two ways to get off the Red-Eye One's good and the other one ain't One leaves you six feet under One gives you a chance again Get off the Red-Eye You can't take this ride all the way Ridin' the Red-Eye Whoa, it'll kill you one day
