He knows how to take me to the spot I love best
Slow rider, slow rider move on a little more
The sky boss is waitin' at the big ranch house door
The sky boss is waitin' at the big ranch house door
One went to Denver the other went bad
Slow rider, slow rider move on a little more
I can't help but missin' the daughters that I had
But I try to keep singin' from morning till night
Strap it on snuffy lead him out of the stall
And the forty pound saddle won't make us both raw
Throw me on his back and turn him toward the west
My young wife died in a poolroom fight
Slow rider, slow rider move on a little more
Whenever I die take my saddle from the wall
Where there's grass in the coolies and water in the drawl
