Lyrics

Intro

Osiyo my friend

Turn the dial on

Somewhere down that blacktop

A rumble carries on

Verse 1

Radio crackle through the static crack

Wiley pulls the throttle on the two-lane track

Hours feel like minutes when the throttle sings

Wind through the beard and the freedom rings

Bugless highway stretching out like a river

Handlebar mirrors catch the late sun shimmer

Left hand on the mic and the right on the grip

Every passing mile is a friendship trip

Pre-Chorus

And the voices on the air

They ride along with him right there

Chorus

Wind Warrior Wiley rollin' on

Seventy cubic inches of iron song

Talking to the night till the morning light

Riding through the miles for the love of flight

Post-Chorus

Rumble rumble rumble

(Rumble rumble rumble)

Ride ride ride

Verse 2

Dawn breaks gold on the ridge ahead

Ten more towns before he goes to bed

Strangers on the frequency become his crew

Every turn of the key says I hear you

Bass synth thump like a heartbeat down low

Keys and the wood block keeping time on the go

Calling out the call signs one by one

The radio is home till the long day's done

Pre-Chorus

And the voices on the air

They ride along with him right there

Chorus

Wind Warrior Wiley rollin' on

Seventy cubic inches of iron song

Talking to the night till the morning light

Riding through the miles for the love of flight

Post-Chorus

Rumble rumble rumble

(Rumble rumble rumble)

Ride ride ride

Bridge

Guitar crying like a banshee steel

Keys and the drummer lock a heavy wheel

Every soul that listens knows the sound

A brother on the highway homeward bound

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Wind Warrior Wiley rollin' on

Seventy cubic inches of iron song

Talking to the night till the morning light

Riding through the miles for the love of flight

Post-Chorus

Rumble rumble rumble

(Rumble rumble rumble)

Ride ride ride

Outro

Osiyo my friend

Keep the dial on

The road goes on forever

And the wind keeps singing songs

Rumble rumble rumble

(Rumble rumble rumble)

Ride ride ride
