Horses Cantor

Saddle up and ride the ranch and get to Texas, fast as you can Where open land past Dallas grand will let you conquer it freely Raise your stallions, cast your lot and face the wind with all you’ve got Fence the hard-packed earth ~ Don’t stop ‘till it soaks through the hooves as rain Heat the chestnut mare with sun and brush the colts hair, one by one They prance on stilt legs, my they’ve grown They’ll face the moon in no time So step off the subway, brace your mind for dreaming air is what you’ll find Amidst the freedom of the run your horses cantor, one by one.
