JOURNEY
- Still They Ride Lyrics / with translationsJesse rides through the night
Under the main street light
Ridin' slow
This ol' town ain't the same
Now nobody knows his name
Times have changed, still he rides
Traffic lights, keepin' time
Leading the wild and restless
Through the nights
Still they ride on wheels of fire
They rule the nights
Still they ride, the strong will survive
Chasing thunder
Spinning 'round in a spell
Woh, it's hard to leave this carousel
Round and 'round and 'round and 'round
Still they ride on wheels of fire
They rule the nights
Still they ride on wheels of fire
They rule the nights
Still they ride, the strong will survive
Chasing thunder through the nights
Under the main street light
Ridin' slow
This ol' town ain't the same
Now nobody knows his name
Times have changed, still he rides
Traffic lights, keepin' time
Leading the wild and restless
Through the nights
Still they ride on wheels of fire
They rule the nights
Still they ride, the strong will survive
Spinning 'round in a spell
Woh, it's hard to leave this carousel
Round and 'round and 'round and 'round
Still they ride on wheels of fire
They rule the nights
Still they ride on wheels of fire
They rule the nights
Still they ride, the strong will survive
Chasing thunder through the nights
