[00:00:00] Let It Ride (LP版) - Gordon Lightfoot

[00:00:00] Written by：Gordon Ligh

[00:00:12] These are just the simple facts

[00:00:14] I will relate to you

[00:00:16] Though they are not connected

[00:00:19] Each and every one is true

[00:00:21] If they seem a bit untidy

[00:00:23] Well unraveling them is fun

[00:00:26] I will not stand corrected

[00:00:28] I have not harmed anyone

[00:00:32] I just let it ride

[00:00:34] Ride let it ride

[00:00:37] Leave on the evening tide

[00:00:39] Just let it ride

[00:00:44] When I listen to my heart

[00:00:45] I sometimes fail to find

[00:00:48] One sane and simple answer

[00:00:50] On the bright side of my mind

[00:00:53] Even when I'm sleeping

[00:00:56] I can't seem to unwind

[00:00:58] I just let it ride

[00:01:05] I knew a man from Windsor

[00:01:06] Who went to Detroit every night

[00:01:09] And stateside of the tunnel

[00:01:12] Customs agents gave him flight

[00:01:15] He threw his stash in the river

[00:01:17] And his bedroll on the ground

[00:01:20] And when they finally got there

[00:01:22] A sleeping man was all that they found

[00:01:25] He just let it ride

[00:01:27] Ride let it ride

[00:01:30] Leaving on the evening tide

[00:01:32] Just let it ride

[00:01:39] Hear the steeple bell ring out

[00:01:41] Above my lobster pots

[00:01:44] I might be out here fishing man

[00:01:46] But that ain't where it stops

[00:01:49] The mouths I feed are many

[00:01:52] And they all say thanks a lot

[00:01:54] They just let it ride

[00:01:58] One day when I'm old and gray

[00:02:00] And consider what's gone by

[00:02:03] I always will be proud of

[00:02:05] Every tear I've ever cried

[00:02:08] And all of the old jokes we told

[00:02:11] Around the candle light

[00:02:13] To all those tender damsels

[00:02:15] Who had helped us through the night

[00:02:19] They just let it ride

[00:02:21] Ride let it ride

[00:02:24] Leaving on the evening tide

[00:02:26] Just let it ride

[00:02:32] I'm gonna let it ride

[00:02:41] Here's to the girls of London

[00:02:43] And the ones from Montreal

[00:02:46] We never will forget them

[00:02:48] We still fantasize them all

[00:02:51] I knew one in St Louis

[00:02:53] On a Missouri afternoon

[00:02:56] I met one up in Shanghai

[00:02:58] And another in Rangoon

[00:03:01] I just let it ride

[00:03:03] Ride let it ride

[00:03:06] Leaving on the evening tide

[00:03:09] Just let it ride

[00:03:11] Ride ride ride

[00:03:14] I'm gonna let it ride

[00:03:17] Leaving on the evening tide

[00:03:19] Just let it ride
