Lyrics

1. I had a girl, I thought she loved me
'till she called me up one day
She said "honey its been fun, but now I gotta run
Maybe I'll be back some day."

Chorus:
That's the horse I'm riding today
I'm learning life's lessons on the way
Sometimes I'm the pitchfork, and sometimes I'm the hay
That's the horse I'm riding today.


2. Well at first I felt so lonely
'till I realized the score
Well, love will come along and even when its wrong
I'll keep running through that door.


Bridge:
Well I made mistakes till I thought I'd break
No surprise that I fell down
I just needed someone to be the right one
That finally I found.

Now I have

3. a girl, and I know she loves me
And every day I do my best
To make sure that she will be, standing here with me
when I reach my final test.
