Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Get up on your high horse, woman
Get up on your high horse now
And get up on your high horse woman
I'll make it up to you somehow
[Verse 2]
Moonlit shadow, she starts a trippin' firelight
Jumpin' the trees, lyin' across the right of way
Silvery mornin' it glistens down the valley
But she don't stop 'til we ride the night away
[Verse 3]
Get up on your high horse, woman
Get up on your high horse now
Get up on your high horse, woman
I'll make it up to you somehow
[Verse 4]
Blonde braids tangle at the misty break of mornin'
Catchin' light through a dusty window pane
Lost in lust in denial of the warning
She digs her heels in the stallion's flank again
[Verse 5]
Get up on your high horse, woman
Get up on your high horse now
Get up on your high horse, woman
I'll make it up to you somehow
[Verse 6]
Get up on your high horse, woman
You paid the price, you get to play, hey
Get up on your high horse, woman
You're gonna ride to the break of day
[Verse 7]
To the break of day
To the break of day
[Verse 8]
Get up on your high horse, woman
Get up on your high horse now
Get up on your high horse, woman
I'll make it up to you somehow
[Verse 9]
Get up on your high horse, woman
You paid the price, you get to play, hey
Get up on your high horse, woman
You're gonna ride to the break of day
[Verse 10]
To the break of day
To the break of day
To the break of day
