Enjoy the Ride
I bought a bus with my friends
Colored it green and drove it down
All the way to Tennessee
And it was hot and it was cramped
The air was broken it was damp
I recall this vividly
But there’s no place I’d rather be
Than with my friends feeling free
In that van, living in the moment
Laughing praying none of this will change

And in that bus with my friends
We got lost along the way
Right outside of New Orleans
I got mad that we were late
To our Manchester place
Until I found my friends laughing
They said
“It’s not about where we’re going,
Or how long it takes to get us there.
The point of life is to live the little moments
Be they good or bad, you never get them back.”

There’s no place I’d rather be
Than with my friends feeling free
In that van, living in the moment
Laughing praying none of this will change
But it always does
Please don’t forget to live in the moment
Enjoy the ride, while you can

Because We Had To

Enjoy The Ride

Lyrics
Like My Father 
I can’t help but be like my father
But I’ve never been in a place like this before
To watch his eyes fill with water
To years to the day since he last saw my mother
And now that he lives here alone
Is the love they had all but gone
It’s better to have it and leave it
Then never to have it and need it at all

Is life, my love, such a bitter thing?
Well I can’t comprehend what I’m seeing
That this man that I hold over everything
Even he’s weak

So tell me what you want to be, and anything you want to see
Anywhere you want to go and I’ll go with you now
I’ve seen mortality bring a stronger man to his knees
And I’m not inclined to just wait around
When we were young we could be anything that we wanted to be
With the world at our feet
But I just want to be me

I can’t help but be like my father
But I’ve never been in a place like this before
To have my eyes fill with water
To years to the day since I last saw my love
And now that I’m left here alone
Is the love we shared all but gone
If someone loves you and leaves you
Well how do you know if their love lives on?

Is life, my love, such a bitter thing?
Well I can’t comprehend what I’m seeing
That this man that I hold over everything
Even he’s weak

So tell me what you want to be, and anything you want to see
Anywhere you want to go and I’ll go with you now
I’ve seen mortality bring a stronger man to his knees
And I’m not inclined to just wait around
When we were young we could be anything that we wanted to be
With the world at our feet
But I just want to be me

Like My Father

Lyrics:

And I could wait around just a little bit longer
I’ll be gone by the time of the end of this song
There goes the ghost of a girl I adored
Oh Magdalene

Ok, I guess I’m a fool for hire
I know, I know I saw all the signs
It never is enough to be almost in love
And if we keep pretending then we’re wasting our lives
So keep the shirts I left at your place
They’ll do nothing for me now except dress me in pain
I know, I know that love is a game
But if I keep losing, I don’t want to play  

And I could wait around just a little bit long  er
I’ll be gone by the time of the end of this song
There goes the ghost of a girl I adored
Oh Magdalene
 
And I could wait around just playing my part 
Laughing at the tattoos left on my heart
I’m no good at good, I’m no good at goodbye
Oh Magdalene, why even try

And I could wait around just a little bit longer
I’ll be fine by the time of the end of this song
So long to the ghost of a girl I adored
Oh Magdalene

Magdalene

Feels Good to Be Me

Lyrics:

Sipping on a dollar AriZona Tea 
Tastes like the way things should always be 
Losing to my sister at Monopoly 
Every time, it happens to me 
First comes just one big idea 
It’s a little crazy but the way it feels is..
Kinda right, kinda real 
Kinda like it was meant to be 

I don’t wanna know I don’t have a doubt about it 
I don’t wanna hear I don’t have a fear about 
All of my dreams coming true 

I keep rolling I keep rolling 
I don’t stop 
No I keep going 
I keep moving I keep strollin' 
Time don’t stop So I keep going 

Put your hands up in the air 
You said, “We’re all robbers here 
Stealing as much time as we can” 
Oh I never ever want this night to end 
I might go when I’m 95 
Hell, I might get gone tonight 
But if I waste my days, then I waste my life 
And if I waste my life, that’s just not right 
I don’t wanna know I don’t have a doubt about it 
I don’t wanna hear I don’t have a fear about 
All of my dreams coming true 

I keep rolling I keep rolling 
I don’t stop No I keep going 
I keep moving I keep strolling 
Time don’t stop So I keep going 
In my days I have fun 
I’ve got rabbit in my blood 
I keep rolling I keep rolling 
I don’t stop No I keep going 

I keep rolling I keep rolling 
I don’t stop No I keep going 
I keep moving I keep shaking 
I’m just bringing home that bacon 
In my days I have fun 
I’ve got rabbit in my blood 
I keep rolling I keep rolling 
I won’t stop Oh I’ll keep going 
I’m John Wayne I just gallop 
I don’t even need a saddle 
I’ve got better moves than Elvis 
If he was here then he would tell us 
Turn it up Sing along 
Let’s just make our lives a song 
Pack your back up Double As 
If you want to keep my pace 
Cuz I keep rolling I keep rolling 
I don’t stop No I keep going 
I keep moving I keep strolling 
Time don’t stop So I keep going 
I keep rolling I keep rolling 
I’ll keep rolling 
Oh I’ll keep rolling

I Keep Rolling

Just a Little While

A go-to for instant joy, The 502s first song via Big Loud Records, "Summer Fling," is out now. Press play and you’ll be barefoot in the sand, laughing with friends, and singing at the top of your lungs—even if it’s just in your kitchen.
