The Ride
Loco Hills is a tiny town in New Mexico that is far from anywhere and the place my old van broke down on more than one occasion, each verse was added and equal to the times i had to sleep with the gear and wait for rescue {pre cell phone.. The song is a lot of my life mystified and abstract from days long past.

The Ride
Words & Music
by Jim Dixon 2003
On the road or was it a dream
looking back can't tell where I’ve been
steam engine rolling across the plains
no tracks I must be insane
but I ride
Somewhere between the dark and the light
When the world splits apart and it's not quite night
you can get lost in loco hills
sit out in the desert or just be still
or you’ll ride
ride you’ll ride
Wish upon a fallen star
call upon faith wherever you are
life is a journey a passage to a place
see yourself in your father's face
or you’ll ride
ooh you’ll ride
ride
find the road and call the wind
a light appears a train rolls in
destination nowhere bond
night falls on this sleepy town
you’ll ride
ride
