Running Wild Lyrics - Tom T. Hall

In the shadow of the saddle, running wild and running free 

In a herd of running mustangs there's a part of you and me 

Broken spirit broken promises make them fear the sight of man 

In the shadow of the saddle lives the wild horse, bronco band 

Call 'em cayuse, call 'em broncos ,call 'em mustangs, call 'em free 

In the shadow of the saddle, let them run, boys, let them be 

We have changed the land and water just to fit our selfish needs 

Now the shadow of the saddle falls across these gallant steeds 

Oh, the Spanish and the Indians gave them freedom in the sun 

In the name of God and nature, let them run boys, let them run
