A smile on your face
But not in your eyes
You're looking through me
You don't feel it inside
Get out and ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
I could pick your face out in a FBI file
You may look pretty but I can't say the same
for your mind
Ah, ah, ah
You walk up to me
And try and look shy
The red around your eyes
Says that you ain't a child
Get out and ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Well I've seen your face in a trashy magazine
You know where you're going but I don't like
the places you've been
Ah, ah, ah
Get out and ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
I could pick your face out from the front or
behind
You may look pretty but I can't say the same
for your mind
Ah, ah, ah
Laugh it a bit
Give it a try
If I'm not impressed
You can still cry
Get out and ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
By the time you're 30 you'll look 65
You won't look pretty and your friends will
have kissed you goodbye
Get out and ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
Ride on, baby
