"There's just a few people
that call themselves stars
can actually sit down with a
guitar and sing you a song"

-- "Merle Haggard" --
Love's a Horse (I Can't Ride)
They say when you’re a Cowboy
You gotta get back up when you fall
So I guess if that’s the case then maybe I
Ain’t a cowboy at all
The silver saddles and gold buckles
I’ve won em all in the spotlight
I’ve rode bulls and broncs of the meanest stock
But love is a horse that I can’t ride

I can always find eight
When I slide down in that chute
When I’m behind that gate
There’s nothing I can’t do
And through it all
They all think I’m riding tall
But nobody sees what I can’t break
What throws me everytime
Cause Love is a horse I can’t ride

I’ve had my day in Vegas
Come out on top in ol’ Cheyenne
From Calgary to Houston
I made my stand
Right now I’d trade it all in
For another chance to be her man
I’d saddle up to her heart
And I’d try to ride again

I can always find eight
When I slide down in that chute
When I’m behind that gate
There’s nothing I can’t do
And through it all
They all think I’m riding tall
But nobody sees what I can’t break
What throws me everytime
Cause Love is a horse I can’t ride
Yeah I know Love is a Horse I can’t ride
