Some men sail the waters, some men live on the land
  I was born Apollo with the reins and the whip in my hand
  Where I take the ladies is something you've never seen
  But nothing stops a man who flies
     and glides like a dying machine

  I don't need the motions that are made for that hill
  And I don't do half the things you think that I will
  And I don't see how you find it much of a thrill
  That's unless you want to take a ride

  Ride my chariot baby, my role is the sun
  Ride my chariot baby, my steed's on the run
  Ride my chariot baby, we're leaving by dawn
  Come on, come on, or else you're gonna see me gone

  I got the belts and whips on, hanging around my waist
  I ride the skies of lightning
     with the clouds running over my face
  Start out in the morning, sailing on the edge of night
  I can save you with my left hand,
     I can destroy you again with my right

  You've got one last chance to catch a ride on my tail
  When I move my tracks are hardly leaving a trail
  And the sun and I leave every dawn without fail
  So if you want to take a ride
