On Horseback

I like beer and I like cheese

I like the smell of a westerly breeze

But what I like more than all of these

Is to be on horseback

Hey and away we go

Through the grass, across the snow

Big brown beastie, big brown face

I'd rather be with you than flying through space

I like thunder and I like rain

And open fires and roaring flames

But if the thunder's in my brain

I'd like to be on horseback

Some like the city, some the noise

Some make chaos and others, toys

But if I was to have the choice

I'd rather be on horseback

Hey and away we go

Through the grass, across the snow

Big brown beastie, big brown face

I'd rather be with you than flying through space

Some find it strange to be here

On this small planet and who knows where

But when it's strange and full of fear

It's nice to be on horseback

Some are short and others tall

Some hit their heads against a wall

But it doesn't really matter at all

When you happen to be on horseback

Hey and away we go

Through the grass, across the snow

Big brown beastie, big brown face

I'd rather be with you than flying through space

So if you feel a little glum

To Hergest Ridge you should come

In summer, winter, rain or sun

It's good to be on horseback

Hm

Hey and away we go

Through the grass, across the snow

Big brown beastie, big brown face

I'd rather be with you than flying through space

Hey and away we go

Through the grass, across the snow

Big brown beastie, big brown face

I'd rather be with you than flying through space

I'd rather be on horseback
