Saddles Bruise (Stephen Foster)

[Verse 1]
When god breathed in my lungs
He must've been a cougher
Here one minute, gone the other
Sit too still comes cannon fodder
Ended up with Stephen Foster
I told him I'm feeling

[Verse 2]
Low down like a river monster
He said find some else to bother
Took my horse and went to wander
Wound up somewhere met my lover
I said hey

[Pre-Chorus]
Out there they called me Sue
Turned me blue
They laughed at my boots
And my horse too
He might well have found my home
Delivered me to your arms

[Chorus]
I think saddles bruise just for you
Keeps me not far from who loves me true
I think saddles bruise just for you
Keeps me not far from who loves me true
