Six White Horses
Bill Monroe
I’m leavin’ you to worry you off my mind
Lord, I’m leavin’ you to worry you off my mind
‘Cause you keep me worried, troubled
Troubled all the time
Ah, six white horses going two by two
Ah, six white horses going two by two
That some other woman
Has took my love from you
Ah, the train I’m riding is sixteen coaches long
Ah, the train I’m riding is sixteen coaches long
That woman I’m lovin’
She’s got another man & gone
If you don’t believe I’m leaving just count the days I’m gone
If you don’t believe I’m leaving just count the days I’m gone
Next time you see your daddy
It’ll be on judgement morn, (oh yeah)
Ah, tell me pretty mama which way the river runs
Ah, tell me pretty mama which way the river runs
Runs straight from by back door
To the set of the rising sun
