The sun has opened up my eyes
  And I don't wanna leave your side
  For that lonesome road but here I go
  Climbing back behind the wheel
  Of fifty feet of chrome and steel
  And a load they need in Chicago
  Through the middle of the night unknown
  I'm on a ride that won't let me go
  
  I'm an asphalt cowboy
  Born to run underneath the stars
  Pay no mind to my lonely heart
  Just ride, ride
  'Til I'm back in your arms again
  I'll be out here on the wind
  
  Sometimes late at night
  I see your picture by the dashboard light
  And it takes me where I'd like to be
  Wrapped up in a blanket there
  Pulling ribbons from your hair
  And your kiss, Girl, that's what I miss
  Still I drive these horses through the rain and snow
  This high-speed rodeo is all I know
  
  And I'm an asphalt cowboy
  Born to run underneath the stars
  Pay no mind to my lonely heart
  Just ride, ride
  'Til I'm back in your arms again
  I'll be out here on the wind
  
  And I'll ride
  Until I'm back in your arms again
  I'll be out here on the wind
  
  And I'll ride
  Through the middle of the night unknown
  On a ride that won't let me go
