Mama when she'd ride that horse

Buried out in Wilson field

Mama'd tell me all she thought

Mama'd tell me all how ridin' feels

C E

And I thought

Not yet

Then mama got too old

And no one ever rode that horse

Until one night I stole her key

And I did ride it all night til dawn

C E

And I thought

Not yet

It looks an ugly world out there

Of girl-guides, disease and war

I love my little velvet bed

I never want to leave it any more

C E

At least not

Not yet

Charlie was the first I caught

And Charlie was the first I begged

To lay an anchor in my heart

As he ran his fingers down inside my legs

C E

And I thought

Not yet

Love I tried to find you x several times

C E Am

not yet!

All my fears, they come to me in dreams

May be the end at least far as it seems

Not yet died and not yet mourned

Not quite revived just not yet born

Am (palm muted)

Buried out in Wilson field

Mama'd tell me all she thought

Mama'd tell me all how ridin' feels

And I thought

Not yet!

No, mama
