a song of trust and friendship
I saw Jesus walking down the street
I said....hey where you going man
wanna take a  ride with me
he said....if you going  my way
I will surely take the seat
he sat and buckled up and we were on the way

I lit a stogie and asked if he wanted some
he said....oh no thank you man
I need to stay clean
so I continued south on highway twenty-one

ride the highway
ride the highway
with Jesus at my side

He said....he was going to Brick City cause he wanted to see
why the children there were all singing for redemption
my children are crying for me to set them free
and I want to give them love and hope and the power of exemption
so I took my stogie and tossed it out my window
as I continued south on highway twenty-one

ride the highway
ride the highway
with Jesus at my side

I turned on my radio cause it was such a ride
Elvis and his zoo crew were having fun with a few
and soon me and Jesus were laughing hard as hell too
he was jigging to the music and popping funnies to rock
I had a hard time believing that this man could mock
I forgot where I was going cause he had me on such a roll
so I kept on riding on highway twenty-one

ride the highway
ride the highway
with Jesus at my side

As we reached our destination
I turned left onto Mill Street
we were in Brick City on the north end
as I decided to stay awhile with my new friend
he said....thank you man I can use your company
cause when I talk to my children you will be my guarantee
I felt a tear in my eye as I parked the car
I said....I've only been with you bout sixty minutes and I know who you are
he said....yes...cause you let me in your life when I sat in your car
