*He bucked me once a running, then he looked me in the eye
I slid down around his neck reaching for the sky
Then he sent me flying, like a little bird
Lord, I think when I came down I ate ten pounds of dirt
**Hold the reins, ain't it a shame
*I woke up in the general, feeling kinda hurt
She fixed me up in patches and love I thought was free
Till she said, "now cowboy, you're gonna marry me"
**Hold the reins, ain't it a shame
