Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Biker, they tell me
You're a dangerous lover
Well, that might be true
Oh, but I'd never ride with another
Maybe they've never had their arms around anything so wild and free
You bring the biker out in me
[Verse 2]
I can't understand it
Why people give you grief
You play the one armed bandit
Like an outlaw with a belief
To them it's the norm for a man to conform to a godless society
You bring the biker out in me, baby
You bring the biker out in me
[Verse 3]
Because you've no interest
In the struggle to obtain
The status and bogus desires
That drive most people insane
You who have nothing have something that only
The one percent could ever see
You bring the biker out in me
You bring the biker out in me
