The Boxmasters and Billy Bob Thornton Somewhere down the road album




Was that my only ride

(Billy Bob Thornton/JD Andrew)

Surely this is a ghastly joke
Seems I was born but never awoke
Years have past so the calendars say
It's hard to remember a given day

Did I really have my turn
Did I really watch it burn

Was that my only ride
Did I sleep through it
Did I lose my guide
Before I knew it
Was that my very best
Did I just blow it
Did I live in jest
And never know it

I can't believe it's been a waste
Can't I have just one more taste
Will everybody cheer for more
All I need in one encore

Did I really have my turn
Did I really watch it burn

Was that my only ride
Did I sleep through it
Did I lose my guide
Before I knew it
Did I have a chance
And never chance it
Did I know the dance
And never dance it

Was that my only ride
Did I sleep through it
Did I lose my guide
Before I knew it
Was that my very best
Did I just blow it
Did I live in jest
And never know it

Was that my only ride
Did I sleep through it
Did I lose my guide
Before I knew it
Did I have a chance
And never chance it
Did I know the dance
And never dance it
