If you want to go riding in the tall green grass
Try to not spook the horse

If you want to pet that old hound dog
Make sure he ain't rolled in shit

There's a pretty little girl, and she's living down there
Down on her daddy's farm

If you're going to mess around with that chick
Be sure to close the barn door

Try to not spook the horse
Make sure she ain't rolled in shit

There's a field of green and an old red barn
Deep in the valley of hearts

If you want to go riding in the tall green grass
Try to not spook the horse

Try to not spook the horse
Try to not spook the horse
