 You can't sit  around waiting for the path to glory
 You gotta  get movin' to tell your story
 The bigger  they come the harder they fall from the
Littlest  acorns come trees so tall
And  where your comin' from  is where your goin'
Til'  you get there you got no way  of knowin'
 All the love  in the world  won't
Find  you if you don't  let it
Let  it ride  let it ride  let it ride
 And every  mistake  is a break
 But only if  you get it
Let  it ride  let it ride  let it ride
 
 
 All the love  in the world  won't
Find  you if you don't  let it
Let  it ride  let it ride  let it ride
 And every  mistake  is a break
 But only if  you get it
Let  it ride  let it ride  let it ride
Everyday  is a brand  new place
Feel  the sun upon  your face
Try  somethin' new don't  regret it
A  hole in your shoe but  just forget it
 Let it ride
 Oh you got  to let it
Let  it ride  let it ride  let it ride
 And every  mistake  is a break
 But only if  you get it
Let  it ride  let it ride  let it ride
