WHEN THE SUN COMES UP I GOT TO LEAVE THIS TOWN
BUT I LOVE YOU LAYIN' HERE WITH ME
I'D LIKE TO STAY BUT I CAN'T HANG AROUND
SO IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME WITH ME
AND BE MY SHOTGUN RIDER, MY LOVE PROVIDER
I FEEL SO LONELY ON THE ROAD
BE MY SHOTGUN RIDER, SWEET LOVE PROVIDER
AND BE MY SHELTER FROM THE PAIN AND COLD
WELL, THE WAY I LIVE, I ALWAYS TRAVEL LIGHT
AND I'VE DONE MY LOVIN' ON THE RUN
I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DID TO ME
BUT I KNOW YOU DID IT RIGHT
BABY, PLEASE DON'T STOP, WE'VE JUST BEGUN
AND BE MY SHOTGUN RIDER, MY LOVE PROVIDER
I NEED YOU WITH ME DOWN THE ROAD
SO BE MY SHOTGUN RIDER, SWEET LOVE PROVIDER
AND BE MY SHELTER FROM THE PAIN AND COLD
SHOTGUN RIDER, SHOTGUN RIDER
