Ride Me Back Home Lyrics - Willie Nelson

We rode into battle barebacked and saddled 

You took the wound in your side 

You pulled the sleds and you pulled the wagons 

You gave 'em somewhere to hide 

Now they don't need you and there's no one to feed you 

And there's fences where you used to roam 

I wish I could gather up all of your brothers 

And you would just ride me back home 

Ride me back home to a much better place 

Blue skies and sunshine and plenty of space 

Somewhere where they would just leave you alone 

Somewhere that you could call home 

And you would just ride me back home

I got a small place up in the foothills 

Where green grass is precious as gold 

I paid a fortune for what little I got here 

But you know that I'd sell my soul 

To have all the mountains, the rivers and valleys 

The places where you need to roam 

I would just gather up all of your brothers 

And you would just ride me back home 

Ride me back home to a much better place 

Blue skies and sunshine and plenty of space 

Somewhere where they would just leave you alone 

Somewhere that you could call home 

And you would just ride me back home

Somewhere where they would just leave you alone 

Somewhere that you could call home 

And you would just ride me back home
