About Horses and Wars Written and recorded by Red Steagall
G The cow camp is busy the big herd’s uneasy D7 The dark sky is rolling and mean
He rolls him a tight one ties down his slicker G Slaps at some dust on his knee
He lays out a flat loop throws at the piebald C Laughed as the old pony ducked D7 Then the third time he caught him
I guess the old pony let him G Games over he’s startin’ to cuss
Now the night watch is his with his face to the wind C He nods as rides past the boss D7 He’s hummin’ a song that his granddaddy taught him G On the back of that ol’ piebald hoss
C And he rides off to cow town when the fall work is over
And goes straight to the Two Minnie’s bar D7 Where he dances till morning with the prettiest ladies G And tells ‘em stories about horses and wars
The cow camps are empty the lands full of fences D7 The cowboys feed hay in a truck
The chuck wagon stands in a museum in Kansas G Rottin’ and gatherin’ dust
He rocks in an old chair his granddaddy made him C When the plains were still open and free D7 And his leggings still hang on a nail by the bed G Gave his spurs to his grandson last spring
Then he rolls him a tight one and stares at the wall C At a picture of him and the boss D7 For a while he jumps cattle out of sagebrush and cedar G On the back of that ol’ piebald hoss
C Then he dreams he’s in Cowtown a dancin’ till morning
With the girls at the Two Minnie’s bar D7 Then he throws down a whiskey with a couple of cowboys G And tells lies about horses and wars
He’s seen in his lifetime a gas-powered jeepney C Then a picture they sent back from mars D7 But all that he prays for is to ride off to glory G On the back of that ol’ piebald hoss
C While he dreams he’s in Cowtown a dancin’ till morning
With the girls at the Two Minnie’s bar D7 Then he throws down a whiskey with a couple of cowboys G And tells lies about horses and wars
