Silver Saddle Lyrics
16 Horsepower
Tonight youve caught your breath
Youve lost your american spirit
If only I could catch my death yeah
Jus give me long enough to fear it
Her talk aint like the other girls
She takes my livin at a glance
We hear the locusts rasp back and forth
An through the thoughts the past does dance
Do I waste my time
Yeah well you know it
An as I stroll through the room
See my features show it
Feel the hand on my shoulder
Yeah it calls me to dwell
Take a breath hard an clear yeah
Like a hammer on a church bell
