Don't Ride Your Bike
Riding the Line: A Tale of Bikes, Beer, and Consequences
Lyrics
I'd had a few beers but my bike was fine
I had consumed a few beers, but my bike was in good condition.
Said if I could hold on he could toe the line
Someone suggested that if I could endure, we could stay within the limits of the law.
So I fired him up and shifted him down
I started the engine and shifted gears.
Centered my lights on the edge of town
I aligned my headlights with the outskirts of town.
It was just about dark as I rolled to a stop
It was nearly dark when I came to a stop.
When up beside me came a Richmond County Cop
A police officer from Richmond County pulled up next to me.
He said pull the thing over son you're driving too fast
The officer instructed me to pull over, citing excessive speed.
So I flipped him the bird and told him to kiss my ass
In response, I made a rude gesture and told him off.
Don't ride your bike when your bikes been drinking
Advice not to ride a bike under the influence; it leads to trouble.
It'll put you in a bind no matter what you're thinking
Doing so will create problems, regardless of your intentions.
And it won't be long before bars are clinking
Consequences will follow soon, and imprisonment is likely.
So don't ride your bike when your bikes been drinking
Reiteration of the warning against riding a bike under the influence.
I saw blue lights so I hammered down hard
Seeing police lights, I accelerated recklessly.
Until I finally laid it down in some lady's yard
I eventually crashed in a woman's yard.
Jumped up real quick just to have some fun
I quickly got up to have some fun.
But they whooped my ass with the butt of that gun
However, the police used force against me.
Don't ride your bike when your bikes been drinking
Repeat of the warning against riding a drunk bike.
It'll put you in a bind no matter what you're thinking
Reemphasizing the negative consequences, regardless of intentions.
And it won't be long before bars are clinking
Anticipating legal troubles and imprisonment.
So don't ride your bike when your bikes been drinking
Reiteration of the caution against riding an intoxicated bike.
3 Knots on my head and 2 black eyes
Describing injuries: 3 knots on the head, 2 black eyes.
1 Big ol fine and a DUI
Received a substantial fine and a DUI charge.
A week long stay in the county jail
Spent a week in county jail; the bike couldn't pay bail.
I guess my bike wouldn't pay my bail
Highlighting the bike's inability to cover legal expenses.
Don't ride your bike when your bikes been drinking
Repetition of the warning against riding an intoxicated bike.
It'll put you in a bind no matter what you're thinking
Reemphasizing the negative consequences, regardless of intentions.
And it won't be long before bars are clinking
Anticipating legal troubles and imprisonment.
So don't ride your bike when your bikes been drinking
Final warning against riding a bike under the influence.
