The Lyrics
the risk factor's high
to jail, you could go
a youth confused
with spare time to blow
its cops, you fear
if caught by the man
they'll lead you into
the local can
so
come on and take a joy ride (joy ride)
come on and help me break inside
come on and take a joy ride
all volvos are comfy
mercedes, the same
everyone's stealin'
its all a big game
a cadillac's better
when trips, you begin
its certainly faster
than ridin' a schwinn
so
come on and take a joy ride (joy ride)
come on and help me break inside
come on and take a joy ride
to jail, you could go
a youth confused
with spare time to blow
its cops, you fear
if caught by the man
they'll lead you into
the local can
so
come on and take a joy ride (joy ride)
come on and help me break inside
come on and take a joy ride
all volvos are comfy
mercedes, the same
everyone's stealin'
its all a big game
a cadillac's better
when trips, you begin
its certainly faster
than ridin' a schwinn
so
come on and take a joy ride (joy ride)
come on and help me break inside
come on and take a joy ride

Especially liked the line about the Schwinn.
Probably a Toyota or a Honda! 5's

Come on and take these three fives.
I'm with Stu...what be a schwinn, Master Alvin?...explain to me verily and you can keep these 5s...
thanks john, johnny stuart and guy
Stu & Kris - A Schwinn is a brand of bicycle, which of course, is not as fast as a volvo, caddy or mercedes.
thanks steve for the light shedding...gee, i'm feelin' old when no one has heard of a schwinn...lol
Take fives home, Alvin Rhodes. (Since Guy already did the obvious joke.) Though it appears that your youth (Don't say it, Mike!) is gone with the Schwinn. (He said it!) Yes, I did.
thanks michael...nice pun...lol
I found this by clicking on the 'random' button. Good stuff, though I'm glad it was already revealed what a Schwinn is.
thanks peregrin
My joy ride is an American Saddlebred ! Easy gait & great trail horse !
