Ry Cooder - Drive Like I Never Been Hurt Lyrics

You told everybody that I couldn't drive
You didn't even want me around
You knocked my love and you know that's a lie
'Cause I'm a good man when the flag goes down

[Chorus:]
I'm gonna drive like I never been hurt
Down the road like you never lied
I'll find my way like I never been lost
And you never laughed and I never cried

I'll say goodbye to all my friends
That won't take too very long
They'll be real big men someday
Never gonna miss me when I'm gone

[Chorus]

I'm in the road I'm in the right
I got a mind to drive all night
When I get there they'll know my name
My head's blowin' loose all over again
Fuel's gettin' hot sun's gettin' high
Salt is burnin' in my eyes
My brain's still good my tires are fair
Lf my drag chute fails baby I don't care
