I Ride an Old Paint

I Ride an Old Paint - The Easy Riders/Marilyn Child

I ride an old Paint and I lead an old Dan

Goin' to Montana to throw the houlihan

Feed them in the coulees then water in the draw

Their tails are all matted and their backs are all raw

Ride around little dogies ride around then slow

The fiery and snuffy are raring to go

Old Bill Jones had two daughter and a son

One went to Denver and the other went wrong

His wife she died in a poolroom fight

Still he keeps singing from morning 'til night

Ride around little dogies ride around then slow

The fiery and snuffy are raring to go

When I die take my saddle from the wall

Put it on my pony lead him out of the stall

Tie my bones on his back turn our faces to the west

We'll ride the prairies that we love the best

Ride around little dogies ride around then slow

The fiery and snuffy are raring to go

They feed in the coulees they water in the draw

Their tails're all matted their backs're all raw
