Allman Brothers Band, The ~ Let Me Ride


By dickey betts (c) 1990 cbs records, inc. Transcribed by matt dickie Well now times got hard And i didn't draw the card i needed So i proceeded to bang it on down the line Hitchhike, turnpike And if you got room won't you let me ride? Just as far as you're going And lord knowing i'll be much obliged. There was a light rain falling I started recalling how lonesome a man can be Feeling a chill when over the hill Came a brand new baby blue cadillac Stop on a dime I threw my guitar in the back and i climbed inside Big blue eyes said "hey boy don't you want a ride?" I said to birmingham, alabama, Or to nashville tennessee will do just fine with me. Don't you know what i mean? I'm coming from new orleans. Now hey, [na na.] Mama won't you let me ride? Well now black fur coat, diamond ring Shining like something i ain't ever seen. My old guitar and a roadside bar. Walked in the door looking like a movie queen There was a honky tonk jukebox, hardwood floor She said "i ain't ever seen nothing like this before." I said, "that's all right, mama won't you let me ride?" On down to birmingham, alabama, Or to nashville tennessee wiil do fine with me. Don't you know what i mean? I'm coming from new orleans.

Well now times got hard
And i didn't draw the card i needed
So i proceeded to bang it on down the line
Hitchhike, turnpike
And if you got room won't you let me ride?
Just as far as you're going
And lord knowing i'll be much obliged.

There was a light rain falling
I started recalling how lonesome a man can be
Feeling a chill when over the hill
Came a brand new baby blue cadillac
Stop on a dime
I threw my guitar in the back and i climbed inside
Big blue eyes said "hey boy don't you want a ride?"

I said to birmingham, alabama,
Or to nashville tennessee will do just fine with me.
Don't you know what i mean?
I'm coming from new orleans.
Now hey, [na na.]
Mama won't you let me ride?

Well now black fur coat, diamond ring
Shining like something i ain't ever seen.
My old guitar and a roadside bar.
Walked in the door looking like a movie queen
There was a honky tonk jukebox, hardwood floor
She said "i ain't ever seen nothing like this before."
I said, "that's all right, mama won't you let me ride?"

On down to birmingham, alabama,
Or to nashville tennessee wiil do fine with me.
Don't you know what i mean?
I'm coming from new orleans.
Now hey, [na na.]
Mama won't you let me ride?

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
