Lyrics Kris Kristofferson

Kris Kristofferson

Stallion

Stay if you want to, don't be ashamed

Leavin' is easy; Lord, losin's the same

Life is a promise nobody keeps

Lay yourself down girl; rock me to sleep

We were the wild ones, proud in our prime

Me and the stallion, Lord, one of a kind

See how we run, Lord, see how we fall

Ridin' for moonlight, we done it all

Well, the daylight was dying, rooks in the wind

She stood before me, stripped to the skin

Next to my stallion, she purely shown

Gliding to moonlight, starlight and stone

The moonlight is silver, starlight is cold

Wakin' to laughter, shakin' my soul

She was runnin' my stallion, naked and free

Ridin' for moonlight, gone like a dream

Stay if you want to, don't be ashamed

Leavin' is easy; Lord, losin's the same

Life is a promise nobody keeps

Lay yourself down girl; rock me to sleep
