Текст песни The Horse Accident (Live) - Goodnight , Texas

Appalachian dust from the horse that she was riding
Made it hard to see her through the tepid summer air
And I wore my finest derby hat to gather her attention
And I wanted nothing more than to follow her somewhere

And it took her near a year to break the shackles of a past love
I said she'd never hurt as long as she's with me
From a cold winter wall to a springtime window
There's warm hearts living where you'd never think they'd be

Oh Lord, let me die first, I can't be without her
I hope I'd never live to see her casket lined with lace
She deserves to thrive on this earth a little longer
If you need another worker, you can take me in her place, yeah

I heard the people talk about a girl thrown from her horse
Down from the saddle in a terrible display
And the blood it stained the dirt and the dirt it skinned the girl
And the girl they didn't think that she would live another day

Oh Lord, let me die first, I can't be without her
I hope I'd never live to see her casket lined with lace
She deserves to thrive on this earth a little longer
If you need another worker, you can take me in her place, yeah

She deserves to thrive on this earth a little longer
If you need another worker, you can take me in her place

Lord, let me die first, I can't be without her
I hope I'd never live to see her casket lined with lace
She deserves to thrive on this earth a little longer
If you need another worker, you can take me in her place

Lord, let me die first

Lord, let me die first
