Lyrics

 
Old bike
Rode it my whole life
Wonder if I might
Beat that old bike to the grave

Moon bright
Gliding down hillsides
Haze off a porch light
Flickers and catches my gaze

On my bicycle
(Hum bitty bitty)
(Hum bitty bitty)
(Hum bitty bitty)
Rolling along

On my bicycle
(Hum bitty bitty)
(Hum bitty bitty)
(Hum bitty bitty)
Singing my song

On my bicycle RIDE!
Hoping you'll come along

Warm night
Riding my soul bike
Doesn't quite roll right
But it gets me where I need to be

There is no guide
Life is a slow ride
If you've got an old bike
Come ride around here with me

On our bicycles
(Hum bitty bitty)
(Hum bitty bitty)
(Hum bitty bitty)
Hands in the air

On our bicycles
(Hum bitty bitty)
(Hum bitty bitty)
(Hum bitty bitty)
Driving with care

On our bicycle ride!

Everyone's at it alone sometimes
But it's better to have a companion ride
Everyone's Saturday night goes wrong sometimes
(along the ride)
(along the ride)

Busted and rickety olden bike
Busted and missing a bolt or five
Holding together as long as I'm alive
(along the ride)
(along the ride)

Ladies and gentlemen I despise
(I despise)
Leave them alone as I drive on by
(Alone, as I drive on by)
Never imagined it quite so divine
To glide along the ride
(Oh yeah! It's the end of the song)
