Shotgun Lyrics
If I had a dollar for each time you let me down
Then I'd have been a rich man long ago
But the thing with lofty notions is you got to let them go
Relieve yourself of proof
Believe in higher truth
And look for deeper meaning like the way that poets do
So I only ride shotgun for you
Heading out with you behind the wheel is like a poem
I hold my tongue and exercise restraint
That old familiar road house always puts us in the mood
Just as we cross the track
I watch you knock them back
And though we see those city lights
Instead, we hit the sack
I only ride shotgun for you
Highways bring on loneliness but I won't beg forgiveness
'Cause that is where I'm happiest to be
With you there next to me

So I'll send them my regards
In that dark and moldy bar
Now I won't have to gamble 'cause that's always where you are
But like a shooting star, I'm useless from afar
So I'm blazing for glory to come get you in my car
And darling, you know my aim is true
'Cause I only ride shotgun for you
