Gross Paul - Promise Us the Night

Album:

And I rode near all my life on a ranch near Devil's Gate
And I seen this world around me bend and flip and change
Hey it feels like rain
That's a thundercloud
I've been called a coward but I've seen two world wars
And I lost my son Virgil -- my Korean reward
And my Lucy died last summer
You ask me if I cry
Hell, I'll show you tears
They're all over this ground
They're falling from these Blue Alberta Skies
We're gonna ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call, well it's only then
I might pull in the reins
Now they tell me I'm an old man
They tell me I am blind
They took my drivers license
This house ain't far behind
I say,"Hey jump back all you big suits
'Cause you got something wrong
Cause I ain't gone, no I ain't gone"
I am still breathing
And I still have my pride
And I have my memories
Your life it never dies
Like the wind that blows in thunder
Like the stallion on the fly
I got it all and I'm standing tall
Underneath these Blue Alberta Skies
We're gonna ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call, well it's only then
I might pull in the reins
So I say to all you old men
Don't let yourselves get broke
If you think the world's gone crazy
And it's scratching at your throat
It's time to dust off that old saddle
Get it on a horse
Kick up your spurs
We're gonna run like stink
We're gonna tear across these Blue Alberta Skies
We're gonna ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call,
Well it's only then we might pull in the reins
We're gonna ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call,
Well it's only then we might pull in the reins
We're gonna ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call,
Well it's only then we might pull in the reins
