The song is about her putting on biker boots to ride with this Harley dude out of town on the “freeway” to the hills where cattle graze just for the fun of it. Knowingly ‘no rush" just spinning wheels “nowhere 20X” cause the dudes a bit clueless but rather “helpless” cause of the pull of the bright...
[Verse 1]
I'll take my time here — there's
No reason to rush. I'd
Even let the cattle ride away
I wouldn't blink an eye
No, I wouldn't blink an eye
[Verse 2]
He walks by; paints a
Freeway to go far
But I ride his motorcycle
Round and round him twenty times
I go nowhere twenty times
[Chorus]
Oh, every time I do put on boots, I
Feel the charge as a good thing to run to
But I only hear the rattlesnake winds, they
Blow dust, and I'm helpless to fight back
[Verse 3]
Can you bring me a
Fresher perspective, please?
May I be a prouder conqueror
Just bathing in the light?
Just bathing in the light?
[Verse 4]
Oh, true, it's brighter than
Sky we left years ago
I'll take a photograph and pass it
By my eyes for all these times
That I decamp so wearily
[Outro]
Oh, every time I do put on boots, I
Feel the charge as a good thing to run to
But I only hear the rattlesnake winds, they
Blow dust, and I'm helpless to fight back
