Riding Shotgun Lyrics by Anthrax

Stomp 442

1995

[Verse 1]
Do it
Drive it
Drink it
Smoke it
Choke it

[Pre-Chorus]
Two steps forward
A hundred steps back
We're goin' the wrong way
It's backwards, it's backwards
Cuffed and branded, I can't stand it

[Chorus]
Give me the lane
I'm gonna play it my way when I want to
Charged by the pain
I'm gonna scream out my name if I want to

[Verse 2]
Live it
Be it
Hold it
Touch it
Kick it
Beat it
Love it
Suck it

[Pre-Chorus]
Two steps forward
A hundred steps back
We're going the wrong way
It's backwards, it's backwards
Cuffed and branded, I can't stand it

[Chorus]
Give me the lane
I'm gonna play it my way when I want to
Charged by the pain
I'm gonna scream out my name if I want to

[Verse 3]
I feel like I'm riding shotgun
It's not a roll I can play
I would never get on my knees
And walk the walk of the dead
Yeah, yeah
Real

[Bridge]
'Cause I won't take a back up
I'm gonna get my back up
I won't take a back up
Charged by life and nothing more

I won't take a back up
I'm gonna get my back up
I won't take a back up
Charged by life and nothing more
Charged by life and nothing more

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
Do it
Drive it
Drink it
Smoke it
Live it, be it
Hold it, touch it
Kick it, beat it, love it, suck it
Suck it, suck it, suck it, yeah

[Chorus]
Give me the lane
I'm gonna play it my way when I want to
Charged by the pain
I'm gonna scream out my name if I want to, ow

Ah, give me the lane
I'm gonna play it my way when I want to
Charged by my pain
I'm gonna scream out my name if I want to

[Outro]
I'm riding shotgun
I'm riding shotgun
I'm riding shotgun
I'm riding shotgun
I'm riding shotgun
I'm riding shotgun
I'm riding shotgun
