My cousin's getting married at the Methodist church
That's why I stayed home from work
I'm supposed to hold the flowers when the new bride kisses the groom
.. that's what I supposed to do

So what are we doing with the windows rolled down,
twenty-five passionate miles from town
Oh I love her like a sister, but baby, to tell you the truth,
I'd rather ride around with you
The guy she's gonna marry's got money to burn
His daddy's a partner in some big law firm
Yeah that's how they're going to Hawaii on their honeymoon
.. first class to Honolulu
She's never even set foot on a jet
I'm a little bit jealous, I confess
I'd like to fly to Hawaii, but honey if I had to choose
Oh I'd rather ride around with you
Chorus:
I don't care where this road goes
No I don't wanna turn around
Let go of the wheel, feel the wind blow
Don't even think about slowin' down
They're tying tin cans to the back of the car
wondering where in the world we are
The preacher's done praying and the couple's done saying "I do"
.. that could be me and you
There's way too many decisions to make,
the length of the dress, the letters on the cake
Oh one of these days I might get married too
But I'd rather ride around with you

Cause I'd rather ride around with you
Oh I'd rather ride around with you...
