letra de chestnut mare (live) - roger mcguinn
always alone never with a herd
prettiest mare i’ve ever seen
you’ll have to take my word
i’m gonna catch that horse if i can
and when i do i’ll give her my brand
and we’ll be friends for life
she’ll be just like a wife
i’m gonna catch that horse if i can
well i was up on stony ridge after this chestnut mare
i’d been chasin’ her for weeks now. oh, i’d catch a little glimpse
of her every once in a while; she’d be off takin’ her meal, or bathin’;
she was a real fine lady!
this one day i saw her standin’ over there in a clearing
so i snuck up to her nice and easy. i waited for the wind to blow
just the right way, and i got my rope out and i flung it in the air!
well i got her, and i’m pullin’ on her, she’s pullin’ back
like a mule tryin’ to climb up a ladder. i take this chance and
i jump up on her. danged if i don’t land right on top of her the
first time. well she takes off, runnin’ up on to that ridge, higher
than i’ve ever been before. we’re runnin’ along just fine, and then
she sees a sidewinder, all coiled up ready to strike. well that
spooks her, and she jumps off the edge …me holdin’ on!
above the clouds higher than eagles were gliding
suspended in the sky
over the moon, straight for the sun we were riding
my eyes were filled with light
behind us black walls, below us a bottomless canyon
floating with no sound
gulls far below, seemed to be suddenly rising
exploding all around
and we were falling down this crevice, about a mile down there
i’d say! i look down and i see this red thing below us. turned
out to be our reflection in a little pool of water, about six
feet wide, and only one foot deep, and we’re comin’ down at it!
finally we hit and we splashed that pool dry. well that’s when
i lost my hold and she got away. but i’m never gonna’ give up
i’m gonna’ get her again some day!
i’m gonna catch that horse if i can
and when i do i’ll give her my brand
and we’ll be friends for life
she’ll be just like a wife
i’m gonna catch that horse if i can
