Arlo Guthrie - I Ride An Old Paint Lyrics
Arranged and adapted by Arlo GuthrieI ride an old paint, I lead an old damI'm goin' to Montana to throw the hoolihanThey feed in the coulees, they water in the drawTheir tails are all matted, their backs are all rawCHORUS:Ride around little dogies, ride around them slowFor the fiery and snuffy are rarin' to goOld Bill Jones had a daughter and a sonOne went to college, the other went wrongHis wife, she got killed in a poolroom fightBut still he's a-singin' from mornin' till nightCHORUSWhen I die, take my saddle from the wallPlace it on my old pony, lead him out of his stallTie my bones to my saddle and turn our faces to the WestAnd we'll ride the prairie we love the bestCHORUSI ride an old paint, I lead an old damI'm goin' to Montana to throw the hoolihanThey feed in the coulees, they water in the drawTheir tails are all matted, and their backs are all rawCHORUS
