Story behind the song
This footloose cowboy just couldn't settle down
Lyrics
YOUR WILDHORSE HEART
Wildhorses and you, are very much the same,
To rope and brand them, is a dirty shame,
It's better by far, to watch them run,
Across the plains, into the setting sun,
'Til they're out of sight, into the fallin' night,
Like your wildhorse heart,
(chorus)
When that far off look, comes over you,
I know exactly, what you're gonna do,
Let your wildhorse heart, run away with you,
God take you, and your wildhorse heart,
When your wildhorse heart, gets the urge to roam,
There ain't any use, trying to keep you home,
I can tell, when the cheatin' starts,
I can hear the beating, of your wildhorse heart,
No one's to blame, we just couldn't tame,
Your wildhorse heart,
(bridge)
It's a dirty shame, no one's to blame,
We just couldn't tame, your wildhorse heart,
God take you, and your wildhorse heart,
It's beginnin' to look, like you'll never change,
I'm sending you back, to the open range,
I'll give you your head, you're the next of kin,
To the stallion you ride, you shall inherit the wind,
Your roots are shallow, you were born to fallow,
Your wildhorse heart,
(Chorus)
When that far off look, comes over you,
I know exactly, what you're gonna do,
Let your wildhorse heart, run away with you,
God take you and your wildhorse heart,
(bridge)
It's a dirty shame, No one's to blame,
We just couldn't tame,Your wildhorse heart,
God take you and your wildhose heart,
Oh, God take you and your wildhorse heart,
Your wildhorse heart,
