Free Ride Lyrics - Singles - Mark Erelli

(Mark Erelli) 

Did you think they'd part the seas for you like Moses 

Did you think everything would come up roses 

For every door they open 

There's another door that closes 

Did you think they'd part the seas for you like Moses 

Did you think they'd give you everything you need 

Did you think as you ask then so shall you receive 

They'll let you roll the dice 

But there ain't no guarantee 

Did you think they'd give you everything you need 

CHORUS 

Nobody promised you a free ride kid 

Put that fantasy out of your head 

You're gonna have to work like your daddy did 

Nobody promised you a free ride kid 

Did you think they'd take you in with open arms 

Boy, just how long have you been living on the farm 

They'll want to see you bleed 

But there's no need for alarm 

Did you think they'd take you in with open arms 

(CHORUS) 

Did you think they weren't all vultures in disguise 

Do you think you'll be safe if you follow their advice 

Lord, I'd hate to be around 

When they open up your eyes 

Did you think they weren't all vultures in disguise
