letra de ride on - oh susanna

you wake to rain one early morn
you’ve waited for since you were born
little boy blue come blow your h-rn
that westbound train it leaves at dawn
and you kiss your mama’s cheek goodbye
she’s got all her days to wonder why
you were her one and only son to ride on

you wandered west and joined a crew
to do the work you were born to do
but the golden plains were ruled by a feud
guns were drawn and the bullets flew
when you found his broken body dead
there were just two words inside your head
grab that gun ’cause the war is on
and ride on

ten thousand wild horses riding down on you
riding down on you
ten thousand wild horses riding down on you
riding down on you
no sacred cow could not save you now so ride on
you lost your love your only friend
won to the gun of a hired hand
spilled his blood and took his land
make a lump of meat out of a man
now a blackbird sings a lullaby
goodnight goodnight it’s time to fly
you stand alone, no love, no home
so ride on
soon you were parched, no sign of rain
joshua took you underwing
his outstretched arm a beckoning
led you to a place of green
in a hospital of slot machines
the drugs too thick for you to dream
go lay your bread on lucky seven red
and ride on

ten thousand white shooting stars
falling down on you
falling down on you yeah
ten thousand white shooting stars
falling down on you
falling down on you
say goodbye to the unlucky ones
and ride on

too tired to run, too scared to stop
you learned to love or so she thought
but you left her bleeding heart to rot
with her crown of th-rns and forget-me-nots
now she sees you in the wayward smile
and in the wandering eye of your unknown child
soon he’ll have to walk that crooked mile
and ride on
ten thousand white shooting stars
falling down on you
falling down on you
ten thousand white shooting stars
falling down on you
falling down on you
say goodbye to the unlucky ones
and ride on

we make the trade the day we’re born
a mouthful for a bit of soul
but you took that much too hard you know
and running for your life made you grow old
and that morning rain turned dust to mud
you gained an open road for your flesh and blood
now there’s no one left for you to love
so ride on

when angels fall it looks like snow
their wings are torn from where they grow
you laid yours in a leather case
a souvenir of your disgrace
when you think from all the things you’ve run
and you wonder whether you’ve lost or won
why you were her one and only son to ride on
why you were her one and only son to ride on
why you were her one and only son
