Nobody Rides for Free Lyrics

In my dreams see I'm on TV
Get back exactly who I want to be
If she could really see herself in my eyes
This wouldn't be such a big surprise

I'm sick and tired of it getting in my way
I'm sick and tired of everything I seem I know

Nobody rides for free
Nobody rides for free

Don't stop to think cause I know where I stand
I'm on my way no your not gonna change my plan
If you can break away and see what I say
You'll understand what I'm trying to be

I'm sick and tired of talking to my little dates
I'm sick and tired of everyone in my way

Nobody rides for free
Nobody rides for free
Nobody rides
Nobody, nobody rides for free
Nobody, nobody rides for free
Nobody, nobody rides for free
Nobody

You've gotta pay to play
So don't you stand in my way
Cause nobody, nobody rides for free

Now the worlds at stake
The card was drawn
You thought he could swim but I guess you were wrong
You sink to the depths of your misery
Baby the past will set you free

Nobody rides for free
Nobody rides for free
Nobody rides
Nobody, nobody rides for free
Nobody, nobody rides for free
Nobody, nobody rides for free
Nobody

You've gotta pay to play
So don't you stand in my way
Cause nobody, nobody rides for free

Nobody rides for free
Nobody rides for free,

What is the Meaning of Nobody Rides for Free?

To me this seems to be about Ratt facing obstacles in his life and realizing that the biggest obstacle is himself. I think at this time we were in the early 90's and the hair metal era was winding down. Ratt was trying to get by and attempting to keep doing what they do. This song was on the Point Break soundtrack and plays at the end of the movie during the credits. It's incredible!
