If I Had a Horse - Ryan Beaver

It’s a strange thing you do, a compromise between the two.

Things that boys make believe, and the things men have to do.

Somewhere along the road, I just did what I was told.

Lost the map to all my dreams, and watched that trail run cold.

But if I had a horse to ride away, like I did in my younger days.

I’d ride it straight back to innoncence and the promises I made.

I’d right all the wrongs and sing more cowboy songs.

With a pistol by my side I’d get back to being brave.

Yeah I bet things would change, if I had a horse to ride away.

And it was just a wooden broom that my momma used to use.

To sweep up all the dirt a boy could find in an afternoon.

But I gave that broom a name, we were good at robbing trains.

But life does its thing and imagination it fades.

But if I had a horse to ride away, like I did in my younger days.

I’d ride it straight back to innoncence and the promises I made.

I’d right all the wrongs and sing more cowboy songs.

With a pistol by my side I’d get back to being brave.

Yeah I bet things would change, if I had a horse to ride away.

Oh, every now and then I want to go there.

I bet I could get there.

If I had a horse to ride away, like I did in my younger days.

I’d ride it straight back to innoncence and the promises I made.

I’d right all the wrongs, I’d sing more cowboy songs.

With a pistol by my side I’d get back to being brave.

Yes I know things would change, if I had a horse to ride away.

If I had a horse to ride away…
