Well I don’t know where to go
After all these long, long roads
Seems like it wouldn’t be so tough
To get back on that horse and ride
Well the Lone Ranger did all the right things.
but I don’t think that can be me
I question every path I take
unsure of the decisions I make
But I'm gotta get back on that horse again.
I gotta learn to trust all my friends
I gotta get back on that horse and ride.
I just pray I’ve still got a little time.
Well I know I ain’t Wild Bill
but I’m holding a dead man’s hand
Doomed to live with regret.
I betcha I’ll lose every bet.
But I'm gotta get back on that horse again.
I gotta learn to trust all my friends
I gotta get back on that horse and ride.
I just pray I’ve still got a little time.
What I want written on my tombstone
is here lies a man who was allowed to fail
He didn’t do everything right
but what he did allowed him to survive
Cause he got back on his horse again
and he learned to trust all his friends
He got back on his horse to ride.
Thank God he had a little more time.
