I'm an Easy Rider
Easy Rider's Journey: Freedom on the Open Road
Lyrics
I'm an easy rider, the wind is at my back
Embracing a carefree and untroubled lifestyle, feeling the support of favorable circumstances.
I'm an easy rider, the white line is my track
Identifying with the open road, where the white lines on the pavement symbolize the path of travel.
Every lane is a passin' lane and the ride away is mine
Expressing a sense of freedom on the road, with every lane available for passing, claiming the journey as one's own.
Let me on that straight-away and I'll be fairly flyin'
Eager to accelerate when given the opportunity on a straight road.
I'm an easy rider, my wheels love to roll
Finding joy in the act of riding, with a preference for continuous movement.
I'm an easy rider, I ride a new road every day
Emphasizing a nomadic lifestyle, exploring new paths daily.
I'm an easy rider, I will see you on my way
Asserting independence and implying that encounters along the way are temporary.
I got a number down in every town in my little black book
Having contacts in various places, suggesting a social network recorded in a black book.
And they understand that I'm a travelin' man
Communicating a reputation as a traveler and assuring others that they won't be tied down.
So they don't think they got hooked
Reassuring those met along the way that there are no expectations or commitments.
I'm an easy rider, I love that gray highway
Expressing a fondness for the freedom found on the gray highways.
I'm an easy rider, oh Lord, I love to roll
Reiterating the pleasure derived from riding and rolling on the road.
I'm an easy rider, movin's in my soul
Indicating a deep internal connection to the act of moving and exploring.
I know a lady down in Little Rock and I stopped for a little while
Referring to a brief stop in Little Rock and acknowledging the transient nature of relationships.
But I had to go 'cause another I know is waitin' for my smile
Explaining the necessity to move on, as someone else awaits with anticipation.
I'm an easy rider, I can't stay in one place
Highlighting a restlessness, an inability to remain in one location for an extended period.
