Lyrics
THERE'S A HOLE IN THE FENCE
AND MY HORSE SHE IS GONE
THERE'S FOOD IN THE FIELD
A STALL THAT IS WARM
THE FIELDS THEY ARE LUSH
AND MY SHADE IT IS HIGH
I LONG FOR MY HORSE
ON THIS COLD DREARY NIGHT
IS THE GRASS REALLY GREEN ON
THE OTHER SIDE
IS IT JUST AN ILLUSION
THAT PLAYS WITH OUR MIND
I TREATED HER WELL
AND I TREATED HER KIND
I GAVE HER THE THINGS
THAT A LADY WOULD LIKE
IN THE MORNIN WE'D WALK
IN THE DAY WE WOULD RIDE
I'D TALK TO HER GENTLY
AND THEN SHE WOULD SMILE
IS THE GRASS REALLY GREEN ON
THE OTHER SIDE
IS IT JUST AN ILLUSION
THAT PLAYS WITH OUR MIND
WHERE DID SHE RUN
WHERE DID SHE GO
WHAT DID SHE SEE
TO TAKE HER FROM HOME
THERE'S A HOLE IN THE FENCE
AND MY HORSE SHE IS GONE
THERE'S FOOD IN THE FIELD
AND A STALL THAT IS WARM
THE FIELDS THEY ARE LUSH
AND MY SHADE IT IS HIGH
I LONG FOR MY HORSE
ON THIS COLD DREARY NIGHT
IS THE GRASS REALLY GREEN ON
THE OTHER SIDE
IS IT JUST AND ILLUSION
THAT PLAYS WITH OUR MIND
IS THE GRASS REALLY GREEN ON
THE OTHER SIDE
IF YOU SEE MY HORSE
TELL HER COME HOME TONIGHT
IF YOU SEE MY HORSE
TELL HER COME HOME TONIGHT
