George Strait - If Heartaches Were Horses Lyrics

Been in the saddle since the sun came up
Roundin' up strays in this old West Texas dust
She's been packin' her things since I put the coffee on
By sundown she'll be gone.

Damned this old girth, worn right in two
But a spare link of leather and I'll make it do
And just when I think I got life by the reins
Home ain't sweet home on the range.

If heartaches were horses and hard times were cattle
I'd ride home at sunset, sittin' tall in the saddle
If heartaches were horses and hard times were cattle.

And she'd say she loved me and this cowboy way of life
She'd be right beside me when we rode home tonight.

If heartaches were horses and hard times were cattle
I'd ride home at sunset, sittin' tall in the saddle
If heartaches were horses and hard times were cattle...
