Free Ride is a song written by Dan Hartman and performed by the Edgar Winter Group, formed by Edgar Winter. The single was a top ten US hit in 1973. The song is also in the movie Dazed and Confused. It was also covered by the Christian rock band Audio Adrenaline on their 1996 album Bloom. A version of this song(presumably a cover, or possibly a live version) is used to comic effect during the opening credits of the movie Air America, over a bunch of quick takes of the Vietnam War.
