Joy Ride (6.24.2006 Nissan Pavilion at Stone Ridge, Bristow, VA) Songtext
von Dave Matthews Band

Listen oh, we like this kind of gun
Like a dog with the television on
Starin′ blankly at the screen the way you do
I keep you there and your money too

If you all line up inside of here
Do what I tell you and everything'll be okay
And if you′re lost, I got a bobblehead Jesus
Get on your knees, that Jesus I'll please ya

The money is clean 'cause we scrub it good
With guns and gasoline, we could save the world
Nothing′s obscene, if we only close our eyes
Boys and girls, welcome to this joy ride

Come on
All of you won′t have to lie
Get in line and everything'll be fine
We could toss our trouble to the wind
We get ′em all like we did in the end


The money is clean 'cause we scrub it good
With guns and gasoline, I′m gonna save the world
Nothing's obscene, if we only close our eyes
Boys and girls, welcome to this joy ride

Joy ride
Joy ride
Joy ride

Do whatever needs done just to get by
Takin′ everything into account the way you should
Light it up, light it up, got to be so good

Where?
Yeah
Oh, all of us prayin' now
Where?
Yeah
Oh, all of us playin' now
What you got, give it
God, she always fade away

The money is clean ′cause we scrub it good
With guns and gasoline, I′m gonna save the world
Nothing's obscene, ′cause we only close our eyes
Boys and girls, welcome to this joy ride


Joy ride
It's a joy ride
Joy ride
