Horses

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I got me some horses

To ride on, to ride on

They say that your demons

Can't go there

So I got me some horses

To ride on, to ride on

As long as your army

Keeps perfectly still

And maybe I'll find me

A sailor, a tailor

And maybe together

We'll make mother well

So I got me some horses

To ride on, to ride on

As long as your army

Keeps perfectly still

You showed me the meadow

And milkwood, and silkwood

And you would if I would

But you never would

So I chased down your posies

Your pansies in my hosies

Then open my hands

And they were empty then

Off with Superfly

Sniffing a Sharpie pen

Honey, it's Bill and Ben

Off with Superfly

Counting your bees, oh me

Honey, like one-two-three

The camera is rolling

It's easy like one-two-three

And if there is a way

To find you, I will find you

But will you find me

If Neil makes me a tree?

An afro, a pharaoh

I can't go, you said so

And threads that are golden

Don't break easily

So I got me some horses

To ride on, to ride on

They say that your demons

Can't go there

So I got me some horses

To ride on, to ride on

As long as your army

Keeps perfectly still

Keeps perfectly still

Keeps perfectly still
