Biography:
Jonny "Corndawg" Fritz (known now as Jonny Fritz) is a country singer, not a singer-songwriter. Born in Montana, raised in rural Virginia, Fritz has been touring on his motorcycle since he dropped out of school in 2001. He's played shows in every U.S. state, Canada and eleven European countries, Australia, Argentina and India. But you won't find him on CMT. His music is more in the vein of that obscure '70s gay country that housewives would discover on a Bear Family reissue in twenty years.

G Em
Ride on night rider
Am D (etc)
roll into the night
you ain't no daily driver
and you don't take advice
creep on night creeper
bounce between the lanes
let the white line be your guider
in the still driving rain
take a rest if you're tired
sleep if you need
just recline your recliner
and steer with your knees
Chorus:
Bm C
all alone on the highway
G D (etc)
there's no other kind of life
with which a night ridden' loner
would rather waste his time, tiiime
Ride on night rider
go on and take your rest
lay it down on the highway
and let it roll off your chest
yell to keep yourself from sleeping
or just trust in the road
understand the spirit of the highway
won't let you lose control
Chorus
Ride on night rider
roll your iron steed
jamming gears and kicking tires
have always been your dream
so fill your stomach with garbage
and sit down for days on end
drinking gallons of coffee
and wishing that you only had a friend
(play like the chorus)
but you're alone on the highway
and you know how time can crawl
so thank God for Billy Joe Shaver
and Tom T. Hall
