It's getting close to sundown over the Sierra, stranded on a heat wave, burning with desire
She was on the sidewalk looking for a night light, we talked about the real things and drove into the fire
Headlights on the highway, the desert wind is howling, rattlesnakes and romance is spilling with the rain
Candy-apple-red dress, bleeding when she kissed me, heaven in a rag top, takes away my pain
When your chips are down, and your highs are low, joy ride (Joy ride!)
Move across the night, like a separate wind (Joy ride!)
Pulled up to a motel, "vacancy" was buzzing, pink and dirty neon settled on the hood
Wrap your arms around me, come a little closer, stumble in the twilight, and fell onto the floor
Lovely Mona Lisa, dreaming of the free world, lipstick on the nightstand, and demons at the door
When your chips are down, when your highs are low, joy ride (Joy ride!)
Move across the night, like a separate wind (Joy ride!)
When your hopes and dreams lose the will to glow, joy ride (Joy ride!)
Reaching for the light, knowing we can't win (Joy ride!)
There's something in the distance, a glorious existence
A simple celebration, a place you've never been before, tell me that you want it more
Reaching for the light, one that we can't win (Joy ride!)
When your chips are down (when your chips are down) when your highs are low, joy ride (Joy ride!)
All your hopes and dreams, all you need to know, joy ride (Joy ride!)
