Lyrics Ray LaMontagne

Ray LaMontagne

One Lonesome Saddle

Well we rode into town like a

couple of fools

One eye on the mescal, bent

low on my mule

I's just tryna find some place

where a man might get some

rest.

Wash the tears from my eyes

and the blood from my vest.

Chorus:

One lonesome saddle

One long and lonesome ride

One lonely cowboy

Pining a woman unkind

Walked into the saloon on my

feet that felt like lead

Cold steel hammer pounding

into the back of my head

I raise up my glass to the quick

and to the dead

Singin yeah ya heavy in the

bottle bed

Chorus:

One lonesome saddle

One lone and lonesome ride

One lonely cowboy

Pining a woman unkind

As the glass it left my lips I felt

her hand upon me

Her smile it was so warm, but

her eyes were so cold

She says to me now won't you

please walk beside me

I just shut my mouth and I did

as I was told

Chorus:

One lonesome saddle

One long and lonesome ride

One lonely cowboy

Pining a woman, a coldhearted

women

Pining a woman unkind
