lyrics

"i oughta take that buckskin pony

saddle up to ride

way out past the silvermine

on his silky hide

i met my higher power

in a meditation outright

she told me you're gonna be just fine

you got nothing but time

nothing but time on your side

i chased that fear of death lord

with every pull on the bottle

when i meant to hit the brake

my foot slipped to the throttle

and who knows just where i'd be

half deaf and nearly drowned

i'm thanking my lucky stars each night

i was saved by the sound

safe and sound

in the stillness of the riverbed

there's still a rushing tide

and a current that could pull me down

to the ocean wide

and i'd sink right to the bottom

heavy as a stone

i may be all alone but at least i won't be found

water all around

i oughta take that buckskin pony

saddle up to ride"
