That ground gets harder every year
I find as I shake some from my ear
Well I`m trying for the prize
But sometimes I wonder why
As I watch that horse do two jumps without me.
Horses sure can thrill you
When they`re not tryin` to kill you
You`re gonna ride those horses
Or you won`t
Horses sure can thrill you
When they`re not trying to kill you
Either you like horses or you don`t
I had a few bones broken in my time
But I had my share of glory
Down the line
I guess finding a horse that`s raw
And bringing that devil along
That`s the only thing
That brings me peace of mind
Horses sure can thrill you
When they`re not tryin` to kill you
You`re gonna ride those horses
Or you won`t
Horses sure can thrill you
When they`re not trying to kill you
Either you like horses or you don`t
Dig a hole and throw your money in
Sell your house and borrow
From your friends
Well there ain`t much money in horses
But I`m sure gonna feel my best
Hanging that gold medal `round my chest
Horses sure can thrill you
When they`re not tryin` to kill you
You`re gonna ride those horses
Or you won`t
Horses sure can thrill you
When they`re not trying to kill you
Either you like horses or you don`t
