He was raised in the flatlands, where the big fields grow
Crops can get so yellow, at night time they glow
Horses were his passion, find him on the chuck wagon track
Horses lined and ready, an equestrian Cadillac
He’d be sitin’ there, wagons side by side
And you could hear him yellin’
CHORUS
Let the horses ride
Ride horses ride
Let the horses ride
He started haulin’ big rig, climbin’ up and down those gears
Built himself a family, did it well for many years
Well he passed down many lesson the way a good father oughta do
He raised his kids on horses and they grew to love them too
Well i saw the duck kick up from a steady stride
When I heard him yellin’
Re-chorus
Well i’d stop by now and then, we’d share story’s of the road
Laughin’ round the fire, till our worries would unload
It took 16 charging horses for his ending to unfold
Though he was made of steel and his heart was made of gold
Well might be in my head but i don’t think he died
Cause I still hear him yellin’
Re-chorus
