On Horseback Lyrics - Singles - Oldfield Mike

I like beer, and I like cheese 

I like the smell of a westerly breeze 

What I like more than all of these 

Is to be on horseback 

Hey, and away we go 

Through the grass, across the snow 

Big brown beasties, big brown face 

I'd rather be with you than flying through space 

I like thunder and I like rain 

And open fires, roaring flames 

But if the thunder's in my brain 

I'd like to be on horseback 

Some like the city, some the noise 

Some make chaos, and others, toys 

But if I was to have the choice 

I'd rather be on horseback 

Hey, and away we go 

Through the grass, across the snow 

Big brown beasties, big brown face 

I'd rather be with you than flying through space 

Some find it strange to be here 

On this small planet, and who knows where 

But when it's strange and full of fear 

It's nice to be on horseback 

Some are short and others tall 

Some hit their heads against the wall 

But it doesn't really matter at all 

When you happen to be on horseback 

Hey, and away we go 

Through the grass, across the snow 

Big brown beasties, big brown face 

I'd rather be with you than flying through space 

So if you you feel a little glum 

To Hergest Ridge you should come 

In summer, winter, rain or sun 

It's good to be on horseback, hmph 

Hey, and away we go 

Through the grass, across the snow 

Big brown beasties, big brown face 

I'd rather be with you than flying through space 

Hey, and away we go 

Through the grass, across the snow 

Big brown beasties, big brown face 

I'd rather be with you than flying through space 

I'd rather be on horseback
