Gross Paul Ride Forever lyrics

Gross Paul
Two Houses
Ride Forever
I was born up north of Great Slave, 1898
And I rode near all my life on a ranch near Devil's Gate
And I seen this world around me bend and flip and change
Hey it feels like rain -- it's a thundercloud

I could be a coward but I've seen two world wars
And I lost my son Virgil -- my Korean reward
And my Lucy died last summer and you ask me if I cry
Hell, I'll show you tears -- they're all over this ground
They're falling from these Blue Alberta Skies

Chorus:
But I'm going to ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call, well it's only then
I might pull in the reins

Now, they tell me I'm an old man, they tell me I am blind
They took my drivers license, this house ain't far behind
I say: jump back all you big suits you got something wrong

Cause I ain't gone, no I ain't gone

I am still breathing, I still have my pride
And I have my memories -- your life it never dies
Like the wind that blows in thunder, like the stallion on the fly
I got it all and I'm standing tall
Underneath these Blue Alberta Skies

(chorus repeat)

Now I say to all you old men: don't let yourself be broke
If you think the worlds gone crazy and it's scratching at your throat
It's time to dust off that old saddle, get it on a horse
Kick up your spurs, we're gonna run like stink
We're gonna tear across these Blue Alberta Skies

We're gonna ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call,
Well it's only then we might pull in the reins
