Don'T Know Her Name
I need to go wild where the whiskey flows,
And where the cards make a shufflin' flutter.
I will go wherever the young blonde goes,
And hope her blue eyes don't make me stutter.
Been ridin' this trail for a long damn time -
Pushin' these longhorns toward Santa Fe.
All I've got in these pants is one thin dime -
But I will raise hell when I get my pay.
I've ridden five hundred miles or better
With nothin' but blue eyes teasin' my brain.
Don't know her name, but I aim to get her -
At the end of this trail I'll stop all this pain.
If you've never ridden a horse this far,
Be thankful, my friend, and stay where you are.
