I took a ride in an automobile. Pushed my hands out against the wheel. Asked a girl if she needed a ride. She said “Sure babe but I wanna drive”. Hey now wait awhile. We’re going down with a smile. Cold river – she took me down. Cold river – she took my pride. Had to stop on account of the storm. Seemed like years since I’d been warm. We droved all night till the tires blew. Got in the back and did what you do. Hey now wait awhile. We’re going down with a smile. Cold river – she took my pride. Cold river – she took my pride. On a sunny day. On a sunny day. (She took my pride). All the money you made. Did you need it babe.
