Originally Posted By mickey_ring not a lot more to the song than that. Groovy guitar solo at the end. Here in NJ, the local radio station plays it at least once every weekend.
Originally Posted By MissCandice uh....Fly, Captain Fly? I don't think that's the name of the song though

Originally Posted By mickey_ring well, Ride Captain Ride is the beginning of the chorus, or refrain, or whatever the term is. Upon what the Captain is encouraged to ride is the name.
Originally Posted By wendebird I want Miss Candice to get this, so I'm not going to answer, but if I'm not mistaken, the title is NOT what the captain is encouraged to ride. It is closer to what Miss Candice suggested. BTW, mickey_ring, what part of Jersey are you from?
Originally Posted By mickey_ring so does that mean I gave the answer? I'm in central NJ, near Freehold.
