Lyrics
Verse 1
Astoria dawn in a steel-gray glow
Engines breathing, ready to roll
Twelve silhouettes on the river line
Chrome and leather, chasing time
Kickstands up, the road calls out
Southbound dreams, no room for doubt
Pre-Chorus
From the bridge to the sea
We ride wild, we ride free
Chorus
Twelve brothers of thunder on the coastal line
Pacific wind and a yellow sign
Side by side, through rain or shine
We don’t slow down, we just align
If the road’s a prayer and faith is speed
Then brotherhood’s all we need
Verse 2
Cannon Beach with the haystack tall
Salt in the air, hear freedom call
Tillamook curves and dairy air
Laughing loud at the roadside stare
Newport lights and the harbor sound
Every mile breaking us loose from town
Pre-Chorus
Gas up, stretch, one more grin
Let the next chapter begin
Chorus
Twelve brothers of thunder on the coastal line
Pacific wind and a yellow sign
Side by side, through rain or shine
We don’t slow down, we just align
If the road’s a prayer and faith is speed
Then brotherhood’s all we need
[Solo]
Verse 3
Clouds roll in like a warning bell
Heaven opens, rain from hell
Visors blind, boots soaked through
We’re laughing hard, what else to do?
Florence sign like a neon shore
We dive for cover at Mo’s front door
Bridge
Steam rising from our jackets and skin
Hot chowder, coffee, crooked grins
Rain drums hard on the windowpane
But inside there’s no complaint
Verse 4
Back on the road through Coos Bay lights
Bandon dunes in fading light
Gold Beach bends where the river meets
The roar of tires and crashing seas
Brookings waits where the wild rocks stand
Table Rock rising like promised land
Chorus
Twelve brothers of thunder on the coastal line
Pacific wind and a yellow sign
Side by side, through rain or shine
We don’t slow down, we just align
If the road’s a prayer and faith is speed
Then brotherhood’s all we need
Outro
When the engines cool and the night rolls in
We’ll tell these stories again and again
From Astoria down to the ocean’s end
Twelve riders strong
And brothers till the end.
