Paul Gross - Ride Forever Lyrics
Ride ForeverI was born north of Great Slave, 1898And I rode near all my life on a ranch near Devil's GateAnd I've seen this world about me bend and flip and changeHey, it feels like rain -- that's a thunder cloudWe'll, I've been called a coward, but I've seen two World WarsAnd I lost my son, Virgil, my Korean rewardAnd my Lucy died last summer -- you ask me if I cry?Hell, I'll show you tears, they're all over this groundThey're falling from these blue Alberta skiesBut I'm going to ride foreverYou can't keep horsemen in a cageShould the angels call, well it's only thenI might pull in the reinsThey tell me I'm an old man, they tell me I am blindThey took my driver's license, this house ain't far behindI say jump back all you big suits 'cause you've got something wrongI ain't gone, no, I ain't goneI am still breathing and I still have my prideAnd I have my memories, your life, it never diesLike the wind that blows in thunderOr the stallion on the fly, I got it allAnd I'm standing tall underneath these blue Alberta skiesAnd I'm going to ride foreverYou can't keep horsemen in a cageShould the angels call, well it's only thenI might pull in the reinsSo I say to all you old men, don't let yourself get brokeIf you think the world's gone crazyAnd it's scratching at your throatIt's time to dust off that old saddle, get it on a horseKick up your spurs, we're gonna run like stinkWe're gonna tear across these blue Alberta skiesWe're gonna ride foreverYou can't keep horsemen in a cageShould the angels call it's only thenI might pull in the reins.
