Ride That Horse

I know, old friend, I see you're feeling down
Troubles weighing on you, all your plans have turned around
You need some help just to get you by
Those friends try to tell you they know something you should try

Oh don’t you ride that horse
You'd be riding for a fool
Oh don't you ride that horse
Beware, take care, it’s gonna throw you

Be warned, my friend, the man has got away
And he'd cheat you and mistreat you, what a price you had to pay
First tested his feet but nothing after then
Well your soul is getting weak, you know the man is getting thin

Oh don't you ride that horse
You'd be riding for a fool
Oh don't you ride that horse
Beware, take care, it's gonna throw you

And I know that price is easy to give
Life is yours to live it as you choose
And I know that price is hard to take
But life is what you make it with no blues

Oh don't you ride that horse
You'd be riding for a fool
Oh don’t you ride that horse
Beware, take care, it’s gonna throw you
It's gonna throw you, it’s gonna throw you
It's gonna throw you, it's gonna throw you
It's gonna throw you
