“One More Ride”
When you hear
The roaring thunder
Of a biker riding by
Know that I am with you
Riding high in the sky
When you see
A single rider
On the open road ahead
Don’t cry, just think of me
Riding high in the sky
When my earthly ride is over
And I have been set free
I’ll be riding
The roads of heaven
Just my Harley, God and Me
