Lyrics

Back in the Saddle

[Chorus]

I'm back

I'm back in the saddle again

I'm back

I'm back in the saddle again

[Verse 1]

Riding into town alone by the light of the moon

I'm looking for old Sukie Jones, she crazy horse saloon

Barkeep give me a drink, that's when she caught my eye

She turned to give me a wink that'd make a grown man cry

[Chorus]

I'm back in the saddle again

I'm back

I'm back in the saddle again

I'm back

[Verse 2]

Mmm, come easy, go easy all right until the rising sun

I'm calling all the shots tonight, I'm like a loaded gun

Peeling off my boots and chaps, I'm saddle sore

Four bits gets you time in the racks, I scream for more

Fools go out of their minds, the girls are soaking wet

No tongue's drier than mine, I'll come when I get back

[Chorus]

I'm back in the saddle again

I'm back

I'm back in the saddle again

[Bridge]

I'm riding, I'm loading up my pistol

I'm riding, I really got a fistful

I'm riding, I'm shining up my saddle

I'm riding, this snake is gonna rattle

[Chorus]

I'm back in the saddle again

I'm back

I'm back in the saddle again

I'm back

[Outro]

Riding high
