Between the Saddle and the Ground Songtext
von Peter Wells

she had long red hair
and a short red dress
she woke up alone
in the middle of a circular bed
with nough money for the phone
she was fairer than the truth
seems hatred s all that lasts
she was a party and earings
he lied about his past

between the saddle and the ground
mercy sought is mercy found
between the saddle and the ground
aint such a long way down


thete was a splash of blood and feathers
winscreen faded to black
rain came down like chandeliers
wasn′t strings attached
there's thunder and theres sunshine
everything else will tell you lies
hes too young to really know to
oh to wonder why

betweenn the saddle and the ground
mercy sought is mercy found
between the saddle and the ground
aint such a long way down

he wanted to get a shotgun
blow him every way
she said lets go get drunk instead
they got the wrong kinda bars in jail
everytime you hear a siren
theres more money changing hands
only halos around the streetlights
im still waiting on a friend


between the saddle and the ground
mercy sought is mercy found
between the saddle and the ground
aint such a long way down
between the saddle and the ground
mercy sought is mercy found
between the saddle and the ground
aint such a long way down
