LYRICS
It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time to sleep
I've got to ride
Ride like the wind
To be free again
And I've got such a long way to go
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
I was born the son of a lawless man
Always spoke my mind with a gun in my hand
Lived nine lives
Gunned down ten
Gonna ride like the wind
And I've got such a long way to go
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
Accused and tried and told to hang
I was nowhere in sight when the church bells rang
Never was the kind to do as I was told
Gonna ride like the wind before I get old
It is the night
My body's weak
I'm on the run
No time to sleep
I've got to ride
Ride like the wind
To be free again
And I've got such a long way to go
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
And I've got a long way to go
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind
Gonna ride like the wind
Ride
Gonna ride like the wind
Gonna ride
ABOUT CHRISTOPHER CROSS
Christopher Cross burst onto the music scene with his 1979 self-titled debut album produced by Michael Omartian. The lead single “Ride Like The Wind” spent 4 weeks at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and was quickly followed up by Cross’ most popular single to date (and first #1 hit) “Sailing”, which later became known as the archetype for the Yacht Rock genre. In 1981, Cross became the first artist in Grammy history to win the “Big Four” most prestigious awards in a single night; Record of the Year (for the single “Sailing”), Album of the Year, Song of the Year (also “Sailing”), and Best New Artist. Later that year Cross released “Arthur’s Theme (Best That You Can Do)” which he co-wrote with Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer, Peter Allen, and was the title-theme for the 1981 film “Arthur” starring Dudley Moorre and Liza Minnelli. The song earned Cross his second #1 and the Oscar for Best Original Song at the 1981 Academy Awards. Cross’ sophomore album “Another Page” was released in 1983 and featured the singles “Think of Laura” and “All Right”. Cross has sold over 10M albums worldwide and his songs have been covered and sampled by NSYNC, Puff Daddy, Avant, Shirley Bassey, Dione Warwick, and many more.

My grandpa had a red '68 Mustang he never took out from under the tarp. I was 20 before I ever saw it, in late 2019. He knew he was almost done here on Earth, and he took Grandma, Mom and Me out to an old straightaway in rural Missouri, told us he was gonna let her stretch her legs one last time. He put the top down and loaded this on the 8-track he'd grafted to the car. We hit 116mph and I'd never seen him smile more. Within a month he was gone. I never knew if I'd find the song. Miss you, Grandpa Gene. And to Christopher and Michael, thank you for scoring my best memory.

Sometime in the early '80's, Huffy bicycles used Ride Like the Wind in a commercial that I only saw once in primetime. In those much more fit days I was an enthusiastic bicyclist and before portable audio this song would play in my head every ride up the San Diego coast. Today, at 72 years old, though my pace has become anything but like the wind, I still enjoy the ride and this song is still the soundtrack. Thank you, sir.

Rick Beato's video revealing Chris's excellent guitar blew my mind, and I cant agree more - he was robbed by the mixers, as his solo is amazing!

Der Song meiner Jugend in Ost-Berlin. Konnte das auch auf der Gitarre spielen. Als ich vor ein paar Jahren in Kalifornien war, habe ich es nachts ganz laut am Strand gesungen. Danke Christopher Cross, fuer diesen wunderbaren Song! Er ist perfekt!

Christopher Cross é o ídolo improvável: tímido, discreto, fora de todos os padrões do showbizz, mas que deu de ombros pra tudo isso e apostou no que sabe fazer de melhor: MÚSICA! E cá entre nós, a gente precisa de mais alguma coisa? Simplesmente desfrute 🎸🎵🎶😌

I remember playing this song as I left the yard one time around 2pm in Louisville KY. My dispatcher handed me an emergency Larado TX run. That had be in dock at Larado by 9am est the next morning. I had my old Pete 377 moving. YOUR GONNA RUN LIKE THE WIND.

Man!Weren’t we spoilt,all these magnificent songs that came pouring out of our radio’s everyday and we thought it was always going to be that way ! But for me it ended,with a few exceptions somewhere in the mid 90’s….by 2000 the popular song was gone…..the golden days,from the 60’s,70,80’s and a few gasps in the 90’s.l feel for todays kids,what will they be reminiscing to ? Hip hop and rapping hardly brings a tear to the eyes……

3:25 one of the all-time great rock guitar solos...that no-one can really hear! this song desperately needs a remix to adjust the volume of the amazing playing on display here.

Rick Beato did a video about this calling the greatest guitar solo nobody heard. Funny that he did a video about my own comment back when this came out.

We played Ride Like the Wind in Band in high school back in the early 90s and it was awesome!! I just watched your interview with Rick Beato. Great interview and thank you so much for the music over the years. You were one of my moms favorites.
