As recorded by Bobby Bare (From the 1973 Album I HATE GOODBYES / RIDE ME DOWN EASY) [Chorus] N.C. Ride me down easy, Lord, ride me on down N.C. Leave word in the dust where I lay N.C. Say I'm easy come, easy go
                        G
And easy to love when I stay
[Verse 1]
G                                  C
This old highway she's hotter than nine kinds of hell

    D7                          G    D7
The rides they is scarce as the rain

            G                             C
When you're down to your last, shuck with nothing to sell

    D7                    G
And too far away from the train
[Verse 2]
G                                 C
Been a good month of Sunday's and a guitar ago

        D7                        G    D7
I had a tall drink of yesterday's wine

       G                            C
Left a long string of friends, some sheets in the wind

         D7                G
And some satisfied women behind
[Chorus]
G                                     C          Am
So won't you ride me down easy, Lord, ride me on down

      D7                       G
Leave word in the dust where I lay

                   C    Am
Say I'm easy come, easy go

    D7                  G
And easy to love when I stay
[Guitar Solo] G C Am D7 G [Verse 3]
G                              C
I've put snow on the mountain, raised hell on the hill

       D7                      G    D7
Locked horns with the devil himself

       G            C
Been a rodeo bum, a son of a gun

      D7                     G
And a hobo with stars in his crown
[Chorus]
G                                     C          Am
So won't you ride me down easy, Lord, ride me on down

      D7                       G
Leave word in the dust where I lay

                   C    Am
Say I'm easy come, easy go

    D7                  G
And easy to love when I stay
[Outro]
G                                        C          Am
Yeah, won't you ride me down easy, Lord, ride me on down

      D7                       G
Leave word in the dust where I lay
