His name was Twister he lived in the pasture Right down from my daddy's farm They say there's a cowboy who once tried to ride him Now he's mending fences with only one arm
On my way home from school somehow he always knew Just when I'd come walking by And he'd stand at the gate like the keeper of fate And we both knew that one day I'd just have to ride
Now one crack of dawn well I slipped my boots on And walked out towards that just rising sun My heart skipped a beat when I heard his four feet Pounding down on the red dirt like it was a drum
He walked up against me as if to convince me His heart was easily tamed Then I came to staring up at the blue and the black With a handful of mane
Well I thought he'd go one way but he went the other I'm lucky, I even survived You can't always sit on the fence while the world passes by Sometimes you just gotta ride
Well, the years have gone by since that morning I climbed On that shadow that cut through the fields My shoulder still hurts when the weather turns worse Sometimes you find the strength in the wounds that don't heal
Between horses and heartaches, women and mistakes I've been through more than I should But I strapped a saddle across every battle And held on as long as I could
Well I thought he'd go one way but he went the other I'm lucky, I even survived You can't always sit on the fence while the world passes by Sometimes you just gotta ride
Well I thought he'd go one way but he went the other I'm lucky, I even survived You can't always sit on the fence while the world passes by Sometimes you just gotta rideTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
