[Verse]
DSome folks like the city
Grass thats Emcurried smooth and green
Theaters A7and stranglin collars
Wagons run by gas Dolene
But for me its hawse and saddle
Everyday Emwithout a change
And the A7dessert sun a blazin
On a hundred miles of Drange
Just a Gridin, a rA7idin
Dessert Driplin in the Emsun.................
Mountains Gblue along the Emskyline
I don't A7envey anyone when I'm Driden
When my feet is in my stirrups
And my Emhawse is on the bust
With his A7hooves a flashin lightnin
In a cloud of golden Ddust
And the bawl-in of the cattle
Is a Emcom-in down the wind
Then a A7finer life than riden
Would be mighty hard to Dfind
Just a Gridin, a A7ridin
Spittin Dlong cracks thru the Emair.............
Stirrin Gup a baby Emcyclone
Rippin A7up the prickly pear when I'm Dridin
I don't need no art exhibits
When the Emsunset does her best
Painting A7ever-lasting glory
On the moun-tains to the Dwest
And your opry sounds so foolish
When the Emnight-bird starts his tune
And the A7desserts silver mounted
By the touches of the Dmoon
Just a Gridin, a A7ridin
Who Dcan envy kings and Emczars..............
When Gthe coyotes down Emthe valley
Are a A7singin to the stars when i'm Dridin
When my last long trail is ended
And my Emfinal bacons curled
And the A7last great roundups finished
At the home ranch of the Dworld
I don't want no harps nor halos
Robes nor Emother dressed up things
Just let A7me ride the starry ranges
On a spotted horse with Dwings
Just a Gridin, a A7ridin
Nothin DI'd like half so Emwell..............
As a Groundin up the Emsinners
That have A7wondered out of hell and a Dridin,
Just a ridin

[Verse]

Some folks like the city

Grass thats curried smooth and green

Theaters and stranglin collars

Wagons run by gas olene

But for me its hawse and saddle

Everyday without a change

And the dessert sun a blazin

On a hundred miles of range

G A7

Just a ridin, a ridin

D Em

Dessert riplin in the sun.................

G Em

Mountains blue along the skyline

A7 D

I don't envey anyone when I'm riden

When my feet is in my stirrups

And my hawse is on the bust

With his hooves a flashin lightnin

In a cloud of golden dust

And the bawl-in of the cattle

Is a com-in down the wind

Then a finer life than riden

Would be mighty hard to find

G A7

Just a ridin, a ridin

D Em

Spittin long cracks thru the air.............

G Em

Stirrin up a baby cyclone

A7 D

Rippin up the prickly pear when I'm ridin

I don't need no art exhibits

When the sunset does her best

Painting ever-lasting glory

On the moun-tains to the west

And your opry sounds so foolish

When the night-bird starts his tune

And the desserts silver mounted

By the touches of the moon

G A7

Just a ridin, a ridin

D Em

Who can envy kings and czars..............

G Em

When the coyotes down the valley

A7 D

Are a singin to the stars when i'm ridin

When my last long trail is ended

And my final bacons curled

And the last great roundups finished

At the home ranch of the world

I don't want no harps nor halos

Robes nor other dressed up things

Just let me ride the starry ranges

On a spotted horse with wings

G A7

Just a ridin, a ridin

D Em

Nothin I'd like half so well..............

G Em

As a roundin up the sinners

A7 D

That have wondered out of hell and a ridin,

Just a ridin
