Byrds Chesnut Mare Lyrics
Written by roger mcguinn and jacques levy
Always alone never with a herd
Prettiest mare Ive ever seen
Youll have to take my word
Im gonna catch that horse if I can
And when I do Ill give her my brand
Well I was up on stony ridge after this chestnut mare
Id been chasin her for weeks
Oh, Id catch a glimpse of her every once in a while
Takin her meal, or bathin
A fine lady
This one day I happened to be real close to her
I saw her standin over there
So I snuck up to her nice and easy
And I got my rope out
And I flung it in the air
Im gonna catch that horse if I can
And when I do Ill give her my brand
And well be friends for life
Shell be just like a wife
Im gonna catch that horse if I can
Well I got her, and Im pullin on her, shes pullin back
Like a mule goin up a ladder
I take this chance and I jump up on her
d___ed if I dont land right on top of her
Well she takes off, runnin up on to that ridge
Higher than Ive ever been before
Shes runnin along just fine, till she stops
Something spooked her
Its a sidewinder, all coiled and ready to strike
She doesnt know what to do for a second
But then she jumps off the edge
Me holding 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
Im gonna catch that horse if I can
And when I do Ill give her my brand
And well be friends for life
Shell be just like a wife
Im gonna catch that horse if I can
And we were falling down this crevice, about a mile down
Id say! I look down and I see this red thing below us
Its our reflection in a little pool of water
About six feet wide, and one foot deep
And were comin up real fast
Crawling down right through it
We hit and we splashed it dry
Thats when I lost my hold and she got away
But Im gonna try to get her again some day
Im gonna catch that horse if I can
And when I do Ill give her my brand
And well be friends for life
Shell be just like a wife
Im gonna catch that horse
Im gonna catch that horse
Im gonna catch that horse if I can
Im gonna catch that horse if I can
