INDIGO GIRLS - high horse lyrics

rate me

you had your chance to show affection

you had your chance to give me more

and now that she's found new direction

you make your way to my back door

what makes you think the whole world wants you

give steel a kiss and it will bend

the flesh is weak and when it's all been said and done

the spirit's all that's left in the end

if you have to saddle your high horse

go on and ride out of my sight

(ride out of my sight)

you never had the time of day for me you know

and now you want to spend the night

you're big with the come-on like it's no big deal

no big deal to you

you let the wild wind blow your course

(wild wind blow your course)

i do not want the dirt from your shoes

or from the hooves of your high horse

the way i see it there are few things left

to hold on to and keep your head yeah

when it's your sense of humor and integrity

there's nothing funny about what's being said

there was a day when i would let myself be trampled

as long as it was done by you

(as long as it was done by you)

but i took so much abuse now i've had ample

there's no way that you'll break through

if you have to saddle your high horse

go on and ride out of my sight

(ride out of my sight)

you never had the time of day for me you know

and now you want to spend the night

you're big with the come on like it's no big deal

no big deal to you

you let the wild wind blow your course

(wild wind blow your course)

i do not want the dirt from your shoes

or from the hooves of your high horse

you had your chance to show affection

(you had your chance to show me some affection)

you had your chance to give me more

(you had your chance to give me more baby)

and now that she's found new direction

you make your way to my back door

what makes you think the whole world wants you

give steel a kiss and it will bend

the flesh is weak and when it's all been said and done

the spirit's all that's left in the end

if you have to saddle your high horse

go on and ride out of my sight

(ride out of my sight)

you never had the time of day for me you know you didn't

and now you want to spend the night

you're big with the come on like it's no big deal

no big deal to you

you let the wild wind blow your course

(wild wind blow your course)

i do not want the dirt from your shoes

or from the hooves of your high horse

i do not want the dirt from your shoes

or from the hooves of your high horse

from your high horse

from your high horse

yeah
