"Spookin' The Horses" lyrics
(originally by Fred Eaglesmith)
You're spookin' the horses
They're wild and they're scared
That bright-colored make-up
And those clothes that you wear
I seen you dancin'
Last night 'neath the trees
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
Where the road meets the highway
Those bright city lights
They musta shone through your windshield
And got into your eyes
You musta thought
That they'd set you free
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
You ain't tyin' your hair
Back anymore
And you're wearin' dresses
Like you never before
And you're drivin' faster
Than I've ever seen
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
Well, I can hear the gears grindin'
Where you make the turn
Up on that skyline
Those headlights just burn
The horses go runnin'
And my heart just screams
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
They're wild and they're scared
That bright-colored make-up
And those clothes that you wear
I seen you dancin'
Last night 'neath the trees
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
Where the road meets the highway
Those bright city lights
They musta shone through your windshield
And got into your eyes
You musta thought
That they'd set you free
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
You ain't tyin' your hair
Back anymore
And you're wearin' dresses
Like you never before
And you're drivin' faster
Than I've ever seen
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
Well, I can hear the gears grindin'
Where you make the turn
Up on that skyline
Those headlights just burn
The horses go runnin'
And my heart just screams
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
You're spookin' the horses
And you're scarin' me
