I'm An Easy Rider
By Kenny Rich
[Verse 1]
Put on my leathers and I'm gonna ride
Come Sunday mornin' gonna leave this town behind
I just can't take workin', from eight to five
People gettin' on me, they don't like the way I look
But they don't judge the cover by the inside of the book
And harassment is one thing
I just don't need
[Chorus]
I'm an easy rider
Easy rider
Easy rider
Don't you put no chains on me
[Verse 2]
Going down to Tampa, to see a friend of mine
Bathe in that hot sun and have myself a time
And when she throws me out well I guess I'll be traveling on
Up through mountains and down across the plains
The wind blowin' in my face and hair I just don't have a name
And it sure feels good lord
To be so free
[Chorus]
I'm an easy rider
Easy rider
Easy rider
Don't you put no chains on me
[Chorus]
I'm an easy rider
Easy rider
Easy rider
Don't you put no chains on me
