Lyrics
APPALOOSA BLUE
Darrell Lee (Cowart)
© 2010
A cowboy and his horse like a rolling stone
You can hold them for a while, But soon they're gone
His never ending trail rarely leads him home
But in his heart that's right where he belongs
He dreams about the day his ride will end
And he wonders if the price he's paid, Is worth the life he's spent
His bedroll and some hard-tack ease his pain
But he's got no way to try and stop the drivin' rain
break
Some rolling hills and a blue green meadow is there
And a girl that's waited far too long, brushes her auburn hair
A picture full of colors, What a beautiful sight
So he calls the land the name of the mare he rides
ch
He's Appaloosa blue-ooo,ooo,
Time's not on his side
He dreams about the land that waits
And a girl on the other side
As he rides his Nez Perce mare through the canyon floor
He prays he wont be coming here no more
break
Now the dusty trails can make a cowboy lose his mind
Lose your way inside a dust storm, When the cattles on the line
It seems this way of life for him will never end
And he wonders if the price he's paid, Is worth the life he's spent
ch
He's Appaloosa blue- ooo,ooo,
Time's not on his side
He dreams about the land that waits
And a girl on the other side
As he rides his Nez Perce mare through the canyon floor
He swears he wont be coming here no more
He's Appaloosa blue-ooo,ooo
He's bound to make it home
It's true-ooo,ooo
He knows it wont be long
Appaloosa blue-ooo,ooo
It's been a long hard ride
And blue-ooo,ooo
Is the color of her eyes
Appaloosa blue-ooo,ooo......
Hum and fade
end
