Let It Ride
written by John Hiatt

You can't sit around waiting for the path to glory
You've gotta get moving to tell your story
The bigger they come the harder they fall
From a littlest a corns come trees so tall
and Where you're coming from, is where you're going
until you get there you got no way of knowing

All the love in the world won't find you if you don't let it
Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
And every mistake is a break, but only if you get it
and Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride

And all the love in the world won't find you if you don't let it
Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
And every mistake is a break but only if you get it
And let it ride, let it ride, let it ride

Every day's brand new place
feel the sun up on your face
Try something new, you won't regreet it
The hole in your shoe, buddy, just forget it

Let it ride, oh you got to let it
Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, oh you got to let it
Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, oh you got to let it
Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, oh you got to let it
Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride
