Chasing Wild Horses

Guess it was somethin' I shouldn't have done, guess I regret it now, ever since I was a kid, tryin' to keep my temper down is like chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses Left my home, left my friends, I didn't say goodbye, I contract out to the BLM up on the Montana line, chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses We're out before sunup, in after sundown, there's two men in the chopper, two under saddle on the ground, in the evenings we'd hop in the pickup, head into town for a drink, I make sure I work 'til I'm so damn tired, way too tired to think You lose track of time, it's all just storms blowin' through, you come rollin' 'cross my mind your hair flashin' in the nude, like wild horses, just like wild horses, Just like wild horses A fingernail moon in a twilight sky, I'm ridin' in the high grass of the switchback, I shout your name into the canyon, the echo throws it back The winter snow whites out the plains 'til it can turn you blind, the only thing up here I've found is tryin' to get you off mind is like chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses, chasin' wild horses
