When I was a young man in Sweetwater Texas
Just one thing stayed on my mind
To ride a white horse over Durango mountain
And leave Sweetwater Texas behind
But I turned twenty one there in Sweetwater Texas
Just one thing made me stay there
I wanted to leave, but I was in love
The girl with the chestnut brown hair
And there came a time,
when she said shed be mine
And go any place any time
So we rode a grey dog over Durango mountain
And left Sweetwater Texas behind
Solo
It was thundering and lightning when we left Nolan County
The bus rolled along through the night
And old 36 was a magic black demon
leading towards the citys bright lights
we pulled into Houston at ten in the morning
our hopes were as high as the sky
but hopes turn to weeks, then years, then forever
I never knew how fast time goes by
And cowboys sellin cars
And country girls in bars
Somehow just dont seem fair
And I wanted to die cause I knew I was loosing
The girl with the chestnut brown hair
Solo
So many times I said
Id rather be dead
Than take downs to go to bed
And ups to clear my head
But If the good lord sees his way
To let me live one more day
(HOLD)
Im so tired of being alone
Gonna ride a white horse over Durango mountain
And make Sweetwater Texas my home.
