"Never Not Had Horses" lyrics
"Never Not Had Horses"
Well, she's never not had horses and she don't know what to do
The few left on the place are lame, their ribs are showin' too
She knows it ain't fair to them with winter comin' soon
But she's never not had horses and she don't know what to do
Without some kinda cavvy 'round she don't know who she is
She grew up trailin' cattle in the Rockies as a kid
She rode to a one room schoolhouse, learned her letters pass or fail
And each day her greatest teacher was just outside tied to the rail
Well, she's never not had horses, she's rode her whole life through
Without a couple ponies around, what's an old cowgirl meant to do?
She's feedin' lots of oats but they won't keep on any weight
You can't rope off of Jackie now and we're about to lose the paint
She dreams about a green broke colt but her knees are bad too
She's never not had horses and she don't know what to do
Well, she's never not had horses, she's rode her whole life through
Without a couple ponies around, what's an old cowgirl meant to do?
What's an old cowgirl meant to do?
All her life she's marked her time with horses that she's loved
But now she's all alone out there and with DC gone, it's tough
The vet's just up the road and tells her it's for their own good
But when it's time to place the call I ask you, who among you could?
Well, she's never not had horses, she's rode her whole life through
Without a couple ponies around, what's an old cowgirl meant to do?
Well, she's never not had horses and she don't know what to do

He didn't have much, just a beat-up truck and a dream about a better life

John Prine - "In Spite Of Ourselves" She don't like her eggs all runny
She thinks crossin' her legs is funny
She looks down her nose at money

I'm never gonna let her go...

Bind me down, I'm a book not a page

I know you...
Turnpike Troubadours - "Easton & Main" Well I left my heart in Tulsa
On the corner of Easton and Main

Soaking up a bourbon stain

Just as soon as I can
And I left my heart in...
