from
The Ranch Sessions,
released June 26, 2020
Wake up stiff and, wonder why did we do the things we've done?
Is it better to have played it safe, than never lost or won?
There's far too many tunes of highway sorrow,
Rolling down the black top with troubles borrowed,
And not enough pen to paper of you and I.
Chorus:
Making me old, beyond my time
The buckers we rode, do they even care?
Bout the tales we have of spurring out all their hair?
I've done some things I'd rather not mention,
If you want a laugh I can break the tension,
But my books are filled with sad old songs
Bridge :
But it's just one more horse a little meaner than most, to carry out my glory
Just that last spur lick to keep my name in young cowboy's stories
Chorus
