[00:09.00]Always alone never with a herd
[00:16.77]Prettiest mare I've ever seen
[00:20.28]You'll have to take my word
[00:24.09]I'm gonna' catch that horse if I can
[00:31.20]And when I do I'll give her my brand
[00:38.76]Well I was up on Stony Ridge after this chestnut mare
[00:45.48]I'd been chasin' her for weeks
[00:46.95]Oh I'd catch a glimpse of her every once in a while
[00:52.29]Takin' her meal or bathin
[00:55.53]A fine lady
[00:59.22]This one day I happened to be real close to her
[01:00.27]I saw her standin' over there
[01:05.04]So I snuck up to her nice and easy
[01:08.67]And I got my rope out
[01:09.51]And I flung it in the air
[01:11.49]I'm gonna' catch that horse if I can
[01:18.15]And when I do I'll give her my brand
[01:24.78]And we'll be friends for life
[01:28.29]She'll be just like a wife
[01:31.29]I'm gonna' catch that horse if I can
[01:38.76]Well I got her and I'm pullin' on her she's pullin' back
[01:43.29]Like a mule goin' up a ladder
[01:46.86]I take this chance and I jump up on her
[01:50.04]D**ned if I don't land right on top of her
[01:52.41]Well she takes off runnin' up on to that ridge
[01:56.64]Higher than I've ever been before
[02:00.12]She's runnin' along just fine till she stops
[02:03.18]Something spooked her
[02:04.65]It's a sidewinder all coiled and ready to strike
[02:06.81]She doesn't know what to do for a second
[02:08.10]But then she jumps off the edge
[02:09.36]Me holding on
[02:10.59]Above the clouds
[02:13.17]Higher than eagles were gliding
[02:17.01]Suspended in the sky
[02:23.25]Over the moon
[02:25.86]Straight for the sun we were riding
[02:30.00]My eyes were filled with light
[02:36.15]Behind us black walls
[02:39.27]Below us a bottomless canyon
[02:43.83]Floating with no sound
[02:49.71]Gulls far below
[02:52.50]Seemed to be suddenly rising
[02:56.85]Exploding all around
[03:04.47]I'm gonna' catch that horse if I can
[03:11.37]And when I do I'll give her my brand
[03:18.15]And we'll be friends for life
[03:21.81]She'll be just like a wife
[03:25.08]I'm gonna' catch that horse if I can
[03:31.83]And we were falling down this crevice about a mile down I'd say
[03:38.97]I look down and I see this red thing below us
[03:41.94]Comin' up real fast and it's our reflection in a little pool of water
[03:45.03]About six feet wide and one foot deep
[03:48.90]Crawling down right through it
[03:52.74]We hit and we splashed it dry
[03:55.92]That's when I lost my hold and she got away
[03:59.46]But I'm gonna' try to get her again some day
[04:05.10]I'm gonna' catch that horse if I can
[04:10.89]And when I do I'll give her my brand
[04:18.83]And we'll be friends for life
[04:22.11]She'll be just like a wife
[04:25.23]I'm gonna' catch that horse
[04:28.65]I'm gonna' catch that horse
[04:32.04]I'm gonna' catch that horse if I can
[04:38.76]I'm gonna' catch that horse if I can
