I been looking for a way out
my one big break, the perfect crime
and here you are, you got it made, I need a hand out
and you're just in time

Yeah I wanna be just like you
you struggle, I won't even try
I'll be swimming in your wake for a long time
on my coattail ride

'cause I'm a coattail rider
I'm a coattail rider

Come on you have to take me with you
I'll be on your back when we go
Got a gift horse, gravy train
free ride on outta here now
all the way to Mexico

I'll look to you for all the answers
you'll hold my hand if I cry
you'll work so hard and I'll do nothing
on my coattail ride

I'm a coattail rider
I'm a coattail rider

Coattail rider
