Ride the Vibe
[Verse 1]
I'm feeling phony on the edge of control
I like a high wire act, just going at it alone
I chased the magic back when I was young
If something got in my way
That's when I got on the road, oh

Kevy, Kevy, heard you singing a song
I heard you riding a vibe
Heard you were breaking the law, yeah
Played it on a Walkman
I was working the bar
Yeah I was scrubbing the mats
While you were playing guitar

[Chorus]
When it feels like a wasteland
I wonder how much more I can take man
And give it to a daydream that swallows a lifespan
As the hits kept coming I watched you running away

[Verse 2]
Nobody tells you when you're settling down
You just end up in a groove
One day you figure it out
I pray the devil lifts me out of this town
To be uprooted, yeah
To pull my feet off the ground, oh
Kevy, Kevy, heard you singing a song
I heard you riding a vibe
I wish that I could have known
If I had it in me I'd dig myself up
Yeah I'd the hell on
I'd get the hell on out

[Chorus]
And it feels like a wasteland
I wonder how much more I can take man
And give it to a daydream that swallows a lifespan
As the hits kept coming I watched you running away
As the hits kept coming I watched you running away
As the hits kept coming I watched you running away

[Outro]
Kevy, Kevy, heard you singing a song
I heard you riding a vibe
I wish that I could have known
If I had it in me I'd dig myself up
Yeah I'd get the hell on
I'd get the hell on out

(Kevy, Kevy, heard you singing a song
Just like a high wire act
Going at it alone
Kevy, Kevy, wish that I coulda known
You were riding a vibe
Breaking the law)
(Kevy, Kevy, heard you singing a song
Just like a high wire act
Going at it alone
Kevy, Kevy, wish that I coulda known
How to get the hell on
Get the hell on out)
