Passenger Side Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, wake up, your eyes weren't open wide
For the last couple of miles you've been swerving from side to side
You're gonna make me spill my beer
If you don't learn how to steer

[Chorus]
Passenger side, passenger side
I don't like riding on the passenger side

[Verse 2]
Roll another number for the road
You're the only sober person I know
Won't you let me make you a deal?
Just get behind the wheel

[Chorus]
Passenger side, passenger side
I don't like riding on the passenger side

[Bridge]
Should've been the driver, could've been the one
I should've been your lover, but I hadn't seen

[Verse 3]
Can you take me to the store and then the bank?
I've got five dollars we can put in the tank
I've got a court date coming this June
I'll be driving soon
[Chorus]
Passenger side, passenger side
I don't like riding on the passenger side

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
