Horses in Heaven (feat. Randy Houser)

Grandpa taught me how to ride On a buckskin mare when I was five He told me the way of life was in my blood And I learned the ropes, how to hold the reins When I got thrown had to hide the pain He'd give me the eye and I'd get back up And these days I don't know if he's rounding up a herd of cattle Or going for eight in his old bronc saddle Or teaching a young buck a hard-learned well-earned lesson I don't know if he's roaming around just to pass the time Somewhere up there on the other side Checking a fence line just as the sun is settin' But y'all I'm sure that he's riding horses in heaven Stubborn, strong, thicker skin I'm who I am 'cause of him Teaching this girl all that cowboy stuff And you may say, "May he rest in peace" But he ain't resting if you ask me If I know him, he's up there kicking up dust I don't know if he's rounding up a herd of cattle Or going for eight in his old bronc saddle Or teaching a young buck a hard-learned well-earned lesson I don't know if he's roaming around just to pass the time Somewhere up there on the other side Checking a fence line just as the sun is settin' But y'all I'm sure that he's riding horses in heaven Well, I think the angels must've wanted a helping hand And they needed a cowboy, not just any man I don't know if he's rounding up a herd of cattle Or going for eight in his old bronc saddle Or teaching a young buck a hard-learned well-earned lesson I don't know if he's roaming around just to pass the time Somewhere up there on the other side Checking a fence line just as the sun is settin' But y'all I'm sure that he's riding horses in heaven Grandpa taught me how to ride On a buckskin mare when I was five He told me the way of life was in my blood
