Lyrics
Up and down the old homestead The naked rider gallops through his head And although the moon isn't full, he still feels the pull Oh, out on the floor where the cowboys dance Approaching slowly at a glance, here comes The shadow of his stance The rains are falling from his hands Oh, out on the floor where the cowboys dance Why do you ride that crazy horse requires a shadow with little remorse Just then a priest comes down the stairs With a sack of dreams an old nightmare So Who are you You the writer says you dress in black but you talk like a fed Just then the sound of how beats was heard The sky was darkened by a prehistoric bird Who blew between the unfulfilled moon And the naked rider to a telephone Thank you We'll call the moon and see what's up I've got some change in this little tin cup Just one call should do it all a part of This number on the wall with my Thank you Flying feathers were all around Lying And the air was filled with a ringy sound Two more birds, the second and the third Came down from the sky to deliver the word Where have you been, they said to the first Get back to the clouds, we're dying of thirst There's not enough time to make that call Let's ditch this rider's shadow and all The sky was filled with the beautiful birds Still on the ground, so crying was heard With his dime in his hand and his hand on the dial His ears were swelled As he forced a smile Hoofbeats beating across the range He rode through the night with his cup of change Tired and beaten, he fell into slumber But up in the sky, they still had his number Up and down the old homestead The naked rider gallops through his head And although the moon isn't full He still feels the pull, still feels the pull Still feels the blow, still feels the blow, still feels the blow Thank you
