maureen griffin - ridin' 9 to 5 lyrics
what the heck am i doing here?
i look for answers, but it ain’t so clear
pushin’ paper is not for me
gotta get away and get myself free
i’ve heard it said we pick our lives
before we’re born, but that don’t jive
‘cause i’m feelin’ blue and in a funk
when i picked this life
was i high or just drunk?
i’m wishin’ i were on the road again
and dreamin’ of the day i really am . .
ridin’ 9 to 5
‘stead of workin’ for a living
too much office jive
and ridin’s more fulfilling
for my past mistakes
i’ll fin’lly be forgivin’
roll out my two wheels
and have a new beginning
over a copier i have been slavin’
while ev’ry penny i have been saivin;’
just so i can travel ‘cross this land
and fin’ly, fin’ly implement my plan
tons of paper i have been pushin’
so i could fill a nice little cushion
to see this whole, wide, beautiful nation
wanna take a permanent vacation
wond’rin’ if i’ll ever have enough money
to ride my bike wherever it’s sunny
and ride route 66 from end to end
it’s not a matter of if;
it’s a matter of when
don’t know how i’ll last ‘til then
my nerves are shot; patience runnin’ thin
maybe my mind’ll crack one day
and i’ll leave the job and blow the 401(k)
ridin’ 9 to 5
in my head that’s what i’m schemen
while i type away
my headlights they are beamin’
just a dream today
tomorrow i’ll be boastin’:
“the dragon’s tail i rode while i was coastin’.”
dippin’ in the jar of my little savings
to satisfy my biker cravings
bike in gear and engines fired
i can’t wait ‘til i’m retired
sittin’ on the top of my v-twin
with rays of sunshine glist’nin’ on my skin
wind on my face; grit on my leathers
cruisin’ in all kinds of weather
when i’m back, what will i say then?
i’ll say, “saddle up. we’re gonna do it again!!”
not just 9 to 5
but from early morn to sundown
got to feel alive
and the greatest way that i’ve found
is to throttle down while i’m sitting’ in my saddle
ridin’ from long island until i reach seattle
ridin’ 9 to 5
gotta satisfy this yearning
‘cause whatever i do
my 2-wheel p-ssion’s burning
thinkin’ ‘bout the road ahead
my spirit comes alive
dreamin’ of the day
i’m really ridin’ 9 to 5
my inner soul is always ridin’ 9 to 5
yeah, who i am is always ridin’ 9 to 5
