My Saddlehorse Has Died Lyrics - Corb Lund

music and lyrics by Corb Lund, Dug Bevans, Michael Caldwell, Terry Johnson 

My saddle horse has died and no one was in time 

To save him or to reach me with the news that I'm without a mount to ride 

My saddle horse has died 

My saddle horse has died and no one can provide 

The slightest bit of reason to encourage me to go on with this life 

My saddle horse has died 

My saddle horse has died and with him goes my pride 

For without a charging steed beneath me I can hardly call myself a knight 

My saddle horse has died 

My saddle horse has died 

My saddle horse has died and I am sick inside 

With thoughts of armies infidel attacking when I cannot join the fight 

My saddle horse has died and I am sick inside 

With thoughts of heathen victories unfolding when I have been left behind 

My saddle horse has died
