<b>Just Along For The Ride</b> by <i>Cory Morrow</i><br />

He took the picture from the wall

And handed it to me and swirled

I said I done nothing wrong

I was framed all along

Now they lied right from the start

When they stole my lonely heart

In the picture that you hold

Lies the hidden truth untold

Chorus

And I was just along for the ride

Where the train's bound I don't know

But I'll ride

I just wanted to go

Farther than I'd been

Now I'm along for the ride again

It was a long cold rainy day

They kept their smiles at bay

Oh to them it was just a game

To play with my life this way

When the first man drew his gun

Silence befell everyone

Oh but a girl she ran for the door

And he gunned her down to the floor

Now we grabbed the loot and we rode

For the posse would soon be formed

Oh but the girl she laid so cold

As pale as the untouched snow

Chorus

I was just along for the ride

Where the train's bound I don't know

But I'll ride

I just wanted to go

Farther than I'd been

Now I'm along for the ride again

We'd ride thru rain and snow

Not knowing just which way to go

Oh but this would be my last ride

I'd take my leave tonight

And the day before we were found

In a picture we all gathered round

Four men and a lie

I was the only one that was blind

Oh now I sit in this cell

I'm waiting my day in hell

So boy you listen good

There ain't no refuge in the hood

Oh and there's nobody to blame

I'm a fool of my own acclaim

Yeah I thought I'd been so wise

But these men proved my demise

And the train moves down the line

For a different town each night

Oh in search of a boy like me

In search of a youth in need

Chorus

I was just along for the ride

Where the trains' bound I don't know

But I'll ride

I just wanted to go

Farther than I'd been

Now I'm along for the ride again
