I became the heir to a rusty red bicycle.
About 1952 Sears roebuck Tank
This was entrusted to me by my late great-uncle Pat.
I guess he didn't ride much.
Both tires of the bicycle are flat.
Pat died at Christmas in 65438.
He has given up drinking.
He fell into a Christmas panic.
My father, he found him.
Two days after his death
One night, he was drunk as a fiddler.
In his little house by the sea.
When I took the bike and cleaned it up.
My father repaired the tire.
Am I going to town or just spinning my wheels?
When I die, I want to know what it feels like.
Hey, I ride it everywhere.
Hey, just riding it around.
Hey, you know I'm wandering around.
Ride it around. Hey!
The funeral will be held in a few days.
In a place not far from where he lives.
it's not a big deal
He has never been married and has no children.
The coffin lid is open.
Pat is lying inside.
His sister has a picture of a poodle named Pepper.
She put it in his hand, and then she cried
Now I am riding around the city.
Through smoke and heat
I ran through all the red lights.
I guess you could say I feel lucky.
Taxis and trucks
Everyone is playing the trumpet.
I have a bicycle bell to ring.
When I rode along, I had the idea of singing.
Hey, I ride a horse everywhere.
Hey, just riding it around.
Hey, you know I'm wandering around.
chorus
I don't even know him.
I wonder if he can see me.
When I rode along,
Riding together
The day Pat was buried.
The air is cold and fresh.
We drove to the cemetery.
Snowflakes are flying in the air.
And a man hired by the state government
He knocked on the crown a few times.
A flag was given to his sister.
Because pat was in the service
When he used to ride a bike.
As early as 52 years ago.
He started a new life.
This bike is brand new.
Life is like this before him.
The big plate in front of the king
He is young and handsome.
The world is full of meaning.
Hey, hey.
The world is full of meaning.
Hey, I ride it everywhere.
Hey, just riding it around.
Hey, you know I'm wandering around.
Ride it around. Hey!
