He
was
black
as
the
sky
on
a
moonless
night
Real
good
with
the
horses,
he
never
reined
them
too
tight
And
he
rode
with
the
best,
Hell
he
rode
with
me
And
they
got
it
all
wrong
in
that
book
of
history
It
wasn't
cowboys
and
ponies,
it
was
horses
and
men
It
wasn't
school
boys
and
ladies,
it
was
cow
town's
and
sin
And
there
was
blood
on
the
leather
and
tears
in
her
eyes
We
swore
at
the
Devil
and
then
we
went
for
a
ride
We
told
some
tales,
he
told
them
best
Real
life
can
always
use
a
good
stretch
But
that
don't
change
the
things
we
did
'Cause
the
truest
thing
was
the
life
that
we
lived
It
wasn't
cowboys
and
ponies,
it
was
horses
and
men
It
wasn't
school
boys
and
ladies,
it
was
cow
town's
and
sin
And
there
was
blood
on
the
leather
and
tears
in
her
eyes
We
swore
at
the
Devil
and
then
we
went
for
a
ride
It's
more
than
one
kind
of
pain,
more
than
one
kind
of
theft
And
it's
bitter
as
the
night
sweet
Jesus
wept
She
stole
my
heart,
age
stole
the
fire
They
stole
my
prairie
when
they
strung
all
that
wire
It
wasn't
cowboys
and
ponies,
it
was
horses
and
men
It
wasn't
school
boys
and
ladies,
it
was
cow
town's
and
sin
And
there
was
blood
on
the
leather
and
tears
in
her
eyes
We
swore
at
the
Devil
and
then
we
went
for
a
ride
Lord,
we
swore
at
the
Devil
and
then
we
went
for
a
ride
