Let it Ride © Rick Goggin 2002
V1
I was walkin' down the steet one day in Vegas.
When a stranger on the corner caught my eye.
Had a bible in one hand,
as he prepared to make a stand,he shouted
bet on the lord and let it ride.
V2
Well he started off a preachin' fire and brimstone.
and it scared me when he looked me in the eyes.
well I tried to run away,
but I was held by righteous rage
he said, boy your time has come, you must decide
ch1
To let it ride,oh let it ride.
You'll need Jesus 'fore you reach the other side.
He told me, boy your time has come,
to get back where you come from.
let it ride on the Lord, let it ride.
V3
Well I grew up hard and fast way down in Texas.
Never had a place that I could call my home.
Cuz my mama, she died young,
and my daddy, he got hung,
and I was left out in the world all alone.
Ch2
Oh let it ride, yeah let it ride.
You'll need Jesus 'fore you reach the other side.
I blamed Jesus for my strife,
wouldn't let Him in my life.
How I cried, oh Lord, How I cried
V4
Well I started then to feel so sad and empty.
All my life I'd been livin' with that pain.
Then he said, son you've got to start,
to let Jesus in your heart.
Then you'll never have to feel that way again.
CH3
So let it ride, oh let it ride.
You'll need Jesus 'fore you reach the other side.
Get down on your knees and pray.
Start a brand new life today.
Let it ride on the Lord, let it ride.
Ch4
Oh let it ride, yeah let it ride.
You'll need Jesus 'fore you reach the other side.
If there's one sure bet in life,
It's that the Lord will heal your srife.
let it ride on the Lord let it ride.
Let it ride on the Lord, let it ride.
Let it ride on the Lord, let it ride.
