lyrics

He would throw back his hair in the Indiana air
He would throw the air and the dirt into the sky
We could ride for days over fields of clay
We could roll for hours in the city roads of gold

And somewhere brothers don't coast into the wind
And somewhere they're holding on and on and on
And somewhere all memories don't open from the back
And somewhere else all wheels turn to the track

And O brother, of the BMX bike,
Say "you know, brother, it's going to be all right.”
And O brother, of the BMX Light,
Say "you know, brother, it's going to be all right.
Just hold tight."

And we’re going to live to ride and we're going to ride to
All the magazines in California say so, too
In my heart I die or ride, in my heart I ride or die
The wind in the face it just goes and goes and goes.
