Its a strange thing you do, a compromise between the two Things that boys make believe, and the things men have to do Somewhere along the road, I just did what I was told Lost the map to all my dreams, and watched that trail run cold But if I had a horse to ride away, like I did in my younger days Id ride it straight back to innocence and the promises I made Id right all the wrongs and sing more cowboy songs With a pistol by my side Id get back to bein brave Yeah I bet things would change, if I had a horse to ride away And it was just a wooden broom that my momma used to use To sweep up all the dirt a boy could find in an afternoon But I gave that broom a name, we were good at robbin trains But life does its thing and imagination it fades But if I had a horse to ride away, like I did in my younger days Id ride it straight back to innocence and the promises I made Id right all the wrongs and sing more cowboy songs With a pistol by my side Id get back to bein brave Yeah I bet things would change, if I had a horse to ride away Oh, every now and then I want to go there I bet I could get there But if I had a horse to ride away, like I did in my younger days Id ride it straight back to innocence and the promises I made Id right all the wrongs and sing more cowboy songs With a pistol by my side Id get back to bein brave Yeah I bet things would change, if I had a horse to ride away If I had a horse to ride away...
