歌词

Always alone
Never with a herd
Prettiest mare I've ever seen
You'll have to take my word
[01:06.41][01:29.84][03:11.81][03:35.79][04:15.20]I'm going to catch that horse if I can
[01:14.16][03:20.36][04:22.63]And when I do I'll give her my brand
Well I was up on Stony Ridge
After this chestnut mare, been chasing her for weeks
Oh I'd catch a glimpse of her every once in a while
Taking her meal, bathing, fine lady
This one day I happen to be real close to her
And I saw her standing over there
So I snuck up on her nice and easy
Got my rope out
And I flung it in the air!
[03:28.22][04:30.40]And we'll be friends for life
[03:31.89][04:34.11]She'll be just like a wife
And I got her and I'm pulling on her
And she's pulling back like this mule going up a ladder
And I take a choice and I jump right up on her
Damned if I don't land right on top of her
And she takes off, running up onto the ridge
Higher than I've ever been before
She's running along just fine
'Til she stops and something spooked her
It's a sidewinder, all coiled and ready to strike
She doesn't know what to do for a second
But then, she jumps off the edge, me holding on
Above the hills, higher than eagles were gliding
Suspended in the sky
Over the moon
Straight for the sun we were riding
My eyes were filled with light
Behind those black walls
Below was a bottomless canyon
Floating with no sound
Ghosts far below
Seemed to be suddenly rising
Exploding all around
We were falling
Down this crevice
About about a mile down it seem
And I looked down
And I see this red thing below us coming up real fast
And it's our reflection that's
This little pool of water about six feet wide and one foot deep
And we're falling down right through it
We hit, we splashed it dry
That's when I lost my hold
And she got away
But I'm gonna try and get her again some day
I'm going to catch that horse,
I'm going to catch that horse
I'm going to catch that horse, if I can,
I'm going to catch that horse, if I can
