Templeton Thompson She Remembers Ridin' lyrics

Time has a funny way
Of takin' some things away
She's not the girl she used to be
I've been here every day
Since she's been in this place
And i've watched her slowly slip away
She must've been somethin' in her younger years
That's all she talks about since she's been here

She remembers ridin'
That old gray geldin'
She remembers the wind on her face
And the feel of the reins in her hands
And it's good to see her smilin'
But so hard to keep from cryin'
When i walk in the room
And she doesn't know who i am
She remembers ridin'

She says i gotta go
I got ten head of cows to load
And i've still gotta saddle up big blue
Then she calls for her old cow dog
And i let her ramble on

`cause that old dog's been gone since '52
She's livin' out her days in memories
Maybe that's better than her reality

She remembers ridin'
That old grey geldin'
She remembers the wind on her face
And the feel of the reins in her hands
And it's good to see her smilin'
But so hard to keep from cryin'
When i walk in the room
And she doesn't know who i am
She remembers ridin'
And it's good to see her smilin'
But so hard to keep from cryin'
When i walk in the room
And she doesn't know who i am
She remembers ridin'
Time has a funny way
Of takin some things away……
