Two thousand and eleven it all started in Aberdeen Armed with pens and journals we created Hope of Dreams And on every Thursday we party with Art & Music Our stories came to life as we fused it. So we became the band Better Ride and we'll perform our songs all the time. From town to town we're gonna rock 'em down And we'll just keep on writing our songs. Our doors are always open we add members all the time. Anyone can join us and sing our tasty rhymes 'Cuz now we're a big family in places near and far. You can join just sing to this guitar.

Every time you walk my way my heart starts on fire Your beauty sparks a flame, mercury rising higher Embers flying through the air Starting fires everywhere and cool water cannot quench my burning heart Burning heart You take my burning heart and pour on gasoline Exploding, imploding, exciting all my dreams Yearning for them to come true Passion burning me and you and cool water cannot quench my burning heart Burning heart Raging inferno in my chest. Can you put my burning to rest? Or will I burn to ash in the cold night air? I need your love because I swear that… cool water cannot quench my burning heart Burning heart

All the cats played the yard, Great Gramma played the tunes on the dining room piano as we sang. Grampa tuned up Harleys and Hand and Foot was played in garage as all our voices rang. The old house is gone but the memories live on. It's gone but the memories live on. But the memories live on Mashed Potatoes on my plate, stuffing and turkey Dean and Keith were wrestling on the floor. Roger kept on playin’ on his video games and then I asked my gramma for some more. The old house is gone but the memories live on It's gone but the memories live on. But the memories live on Great Gramma and Great Grampa are now home with the Lord But we'll be all together once again. We'll join them in the old house and sing and eat and smile With all our family and friends.

Dark Rose Petal see him swagger down my street. How does he keep right in the middle when he doesn't have any feet. Must be one of those flowers endued with awesome powers. I'll crush him with my pickup and make him obsolete. Dark Rose Petal I drive up with my pickup to crush that little rose. He wraps me with his thorny vines and wiggles up my nose. I sneeze him out onto the ground he sneaks away without a sound. I push my power pedal to chase him where he goes. Dark Rose Petal Dark Rose Petal he’s a worthy foe. You’re dealing’ with a villain you must overthrow You better be careful when he starts to grow. You will lose control. Dark Rose Petal Pullover and park my pickup to put an end to this fight. I figure that I should not waste a picture perfect night. Rose, he taunts me with his vines but I'm too busy planning party time. My pals begin to pop in but my rose takes flight. Dark Rose Petal

about

Better Ride started in 2010 as a writing project that included people with developmental disabilities. After lyrics of a handful of songs were written we decided to put the words to music. We now perform at conferences, conventions, fairs, festivals, coffee houses and pubs.
Anyone can join our band at any time as a result we have about 15 core members and over 100 members at large.
