Saddle It Around Songtext
Tell me where you come from now
Tell me where you come from now
I′m from far out in the country
I'm from far out in the country
How you get your livin′ done?
On my rack and pony
What your horses livin' on?
I give them corn and water
Down the road, I got arrested
Police took me to the jailhouse
What they do?
Brought me 'fore a cruel, old judge
That judge gave me a heavy sentence
You know what I say to him?
"Judge, you know I ain′t never been here before"
What′d he say to me?
"I give you six months, you ain't comin′ back no more"
Now the judge, he was so cruel to me
And he would not let me go
So I'm just sittin′ here in the jail
Thinkin' back on the country
They pick you like that
Hear another train go on, on the track, he go somethin′ like this
And sometimes that train be goin' off the track though, go like this
Tell me where you come from now
Tell me where you come from now
Tell me where you come from now
I′m from far out in the country
I'm from far out in the country
How you get your livin′ done?
On my rack and pony
What your horses livin' on?
I give them corn and water
Down the road, I got arrested
Police took me to the jailhouse
What they do?
Brought me 'fore a cruel, old judge
That judge gave me a heavy sentence
You know what I say to him?
"Judge, you know I ain′t never been here before"
What′d he say to me?
"I give you six months, you ain't comin′ back no more"
Now the judge, he was so cruel to me
And he would not let me go
So I'm just sittin′ here in the jail
Thinkin' back on the country
They pick you like that
Hear another train go on, on the track, he go somethin′ like this
And sometimes that train be goin' off the track though, go like this
Tell me where you come from now
Tell me where you come from now
