Saddle
Paul Cauthen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not even for a country mile
Ride
Ride
On this saddle, my saddle
It's a beautiful night
The air is right
Saw you standin' there
Lookin' so lonely down by the cabin
Your long dark hair
It drew me in like a fountain
Ride, babe
Let's ride
On this saddle, my saddle
It's a beautiful night, babe
The air is right, babe
On this saddle, my saddle
Travelin' together on this ole filly sharin' the stars
Souls tied as one, ride any trail: the night is ours
Ride
Ride
On this saddle, my saddle
It's a beautiful night, babe
The air is right, babe
On this saddle, my saddle
Ride
Ride
On this saddle, my saddle
It's a beautiful night, babe
The wind is right, babe
On this saddle, my saddle
Ride
Ride
On this saddle, my saddle
It's a beautiful night, babe
The wind is right, babe
On my saddle, saddle
