Told my horse loving sweetheart
It’s me or that goddamned thing
She looked at me square in the eyes
Then handed over her engagement ring
She said she’s loved me since she met me
But she’s known him so much longer
So she left me with my old pickup truck
and I’m feelin’ so free and stronger
Cause when you’re in a lovers quarrel
With your fiancé and a damned old horse
She’s got no choice but to stay loyal to
The one she loves more than life of course
No matter what you do
No matter what you say
He’s gonna take that girl away
‘Cause she’s a horse loving sweetheart
She’ll always be one come what may
So my horse loving ex-sweetheart
Met another who loved her so
They married out on the prairie
I was too proud and refused to go
But soon enough he was out of there
He was tired of being second fiddle
Truth is he should’ve known better
It’s not like some ol’ confusin’ riddle
Cause when you’re in a lovers quarrel
With your lady and a damned old horse
She’s got no choice but to stay loyal to
The one she loves more than life of course
No matter what you do
No matter what you say
He’s gonna take that gal away
‘Cause she’s a horse loving sweetheart
She’ll always be one come what may
Oh, she’s a horse loving sweetheart
She’ll always be one come what may
