As the sun goes down Down around my ankles oh my my As a sliver of light Shaking through the night to my window And I hold my fire As the rain outside comes down like knives I can't tell no lies And I ain't felt your thighs Girl I'm so young We must ease ourselves back to life 'Cause we ain't been ourselves half the time It ain't right
Girl I stole a horse Black as night and named it the truth I come by your place And you wear your white dress And what we'll do There's a place I know My Grandfather told me where to go A little mango grove With a river going down to Mexico And we will ride on through the night Yeah we will ride on through the night Down down down down Where the water tastes like wine
