a horse called music
(feat. merle haggard & lukas nelson)

high on a mountain in western montana
a silhouette moves ‘cross a cinnamon sky
riding alone on a horse he called music
with a song on his lips, and a tear in his eye

and he dreams of a time, and a lady that loved him
and how he would sing her sweet lullabies
but we don’t ever ask him
and he never talks about her
i guess it’s better to just let it slide

but he sang “ooh” to the ladies
and ooh, he made some sigh
now he rides away on a horse he called music
with a pain in his heart and a tear in his eye

he rode the music from boston to bozeman
for not too much money, but way too much ride
but those were the days when a horse he called music
could jump through the moon and sail across the sky

now all that’s left is a time worn old cowboy
with nothin’ more than the sweet by-and-by
and trailing along, is a horse with no rider
a horse he called memories, that she used to ride

and he sang “ooh” to the ladies
and ooh, he made ’em d-mn near lay down and die
now he rides away on a horse he called music
with a pain in his heart and a tear in his eyes

high on a mountain in western montana
two crosses cut, through a cinnamon sky
marking the place where a horse he called music
lays with a cowboy in the sweet by-and-by…
