  Ride, Ride, Ride is the debut studio album by American country artist Lynn Anderson. The album was released in March 1967 on Chart Records and was produced by Slim Williamson. The album spawned Anderson's four debut singles for the Chart label, as well as her first Top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart "If I Kiss You (Will You Go Away)".
  
  ## Background and content
  
  Ride, Ride, Ride was prepared in three separate sessions between 1966 and 1967 at the RCA Victor Studio in Nashville, Tennessee, United States. The first session took place in April 1966, which produced the album's fourth and twelfth tracks. The second session took place in August 1966 and produced tracks one, two, seven, and eleven. The final session took place in January 1967 and produced tracks three, five, six, eight, nine, and ten. The album consisted of twelve tracks. Eight of the twelve tracks were co-written by Anderson's mother, songwriter Liz Anderson, who would contribute to writing tracks on many of her other albums for the Chart label following the release of Ride, Ride, Ride. The album's fifth track, "It's Only Lonely Me", was co-written with Lynn Anderson's father Casey Anderson, who was also a songwriter at the time. Three of the four singles released from the album were written entirely by Liz Anderson except the final single "Too Much of You", which was written by Gene Woods.
  
  Ride, Ride, Ride was originally released as an LP record, with six songs on the first side of the record and six songs on the opposite end of the record.
