Wild Horse (717 Tapes)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, it's time to move along, I guess Everything I love, I leave behind Standin' in a field out west One thing on my heart, one on my mind She rolls like the thunder, flies like the wind Out where the river don't end I burned all the bridges left in my life Ain't comin' back again [Chorus] This cowboy's all alone Ridin' down that old two-lane The whiskey goes down slow So close your eyes and grab the reins All the milеs and the tears through the long, hard yеars Like a dust storm, I'm headin' north Spent my life chasin' a wild, wild horse [Verse 2] Was born into a lifelong curse She whispers in my ear late every night The liquor doesn't quench my thirst It doesn't change a thing how hard I fight She's cold as the winter out on the plains Like footsteps on frozen ground Nothing can break her, no one can tame Somethin' that can't be found [Chorus] This cowboy's all alone Ridin' down that old two-lane The whiskey goes down slow So close your eyes and grab the reins All the miles and the tears through the long, hard years Like a dust storm, I'm headin' north Spent my life chasin' a wild, wild horse [Bridge] Twenty-two years ridin' back and forth I threw it all away on a wild horse [Chorus] This cowboy's all alone Ridin' down that old two-lane Whiskey goes down slow Close your eyes and grab the reins All the miles and the tears through the long, hard years Like a dust storm, I'm headin' north Spent my life chasin' Oh, a wild, wild horse [Outro] It's time to move along, I guess Everything I love, I leave behind
