Lyrics

We rode into battle barebacked and saddled You took the wound in your side You pulled the sleds and you pulled the wagons You gave 'em somewhere to hide Now they don't need you and there's no one to feed you And there's fences where you used to roam I wish I could gather up all of your brothers And you would just ride me back home Ride me back home to a much better place Blue skies and sunshine and then plenty of space Somewhere where they would just leave you alone Somewhere that you could call home And you would just ride me back home I got a small place up in the foothills Where green grass is precious as gold I paid a fortune for what little I got here But you know that I'd sell my soul To have all the mountains, the rivers, and valleys The places where you need to roam But I would just gather up all of your brothers And you would just ride me back home Ride me back home to a much better place Blue skies and sunshine and plenty of space Somewhere where they would just leave you alone Somewhere that you could call home And you would just ride me back home Ride me back home to a much better place Blue skies and sunshine and plenty of space Somewhere where they would just leave you alone Somewhere that you could call home And you would just ride me back home
