Shotgun

(album: X - 2005)

Ride shotgun
Come on

Oh
I don't even think I can take no more
I know we need a place to go
Time to paint the spot
We ain't hit the floor
You know our money's
Running real low

So we gotta do what we gotta do
You know we gotta get that buzz
Understand why
I don't expect you too
Nobody does it like we do

Leave the City of
Angels behind us
You and me now
Feeling free

I'll let you ride shotgun
Out of L.A. today
It's gonna be a hot one
Time to escape and say that you wanna
Go far away
Don't want another hold up today
You know you're riding shotgun
All of the way to Vegas
We're gonna slot one
No other way to say this
We're gonna stack up the chips
We're gonna be the names on your lips
You know you're riding shotgun

Everything is so possible
It's like I'm living out my dreams
Now I'm feeling kinda unstoppable
Nothing's ever what it seems

Gotta take my chances
Cos I'm here to win
You know the stakes are getting real high
Go ahead and give it another spin
Me I'm trying to reach the sky

Nobody knows what would have been
(Would have been)
If you never said those words to me

I'll let you ride shotgun
Out of L.A. today
It's gonna be a hot one
Time to escape and say that you wanna
Go far away
Don't want another hold up today
You know you're riding shotgun
All of the way to Vegas
We're gonna slot one
No other way to say this
We're gonna stack up the chips
We're gonna be the names on your lips
You know you're riding shotgun

Oh, oh

Nobody knows what would have been
(Nobody knows)
If you never said those words to me

I'll let you ride shotgun
(Shotgun)
Out of L.A. today
It's gonna be a hot one
(Hot one)
Time to escape and say that you wanna
Go far away
(Go far away)
Don't want another hold up today
You know you're riding shotgun
All of the way to Vegas
We're gonna slot one
No other way to say this
(Ah)
We're gonna stack up the chips
We're gonna be the names on your lips
(Ooh)
You know you're riding shotgun

I'll let you ride shotgun
Out of L.A. today
It's gonna be a hot one
Time to escape and say that you wanna
(Yeah)
Go far away
(Go far away)
Don't want another hold up today
You know you're riding shotgun
Slot one
Stack up the chips
Names on your lips
You know you're riding shotgun
