Me and my son were in a tack shop one day, he'd just got a pony for his seventh birthday.
He needed a rig and we found one he liked and I was tryin to get the old feller to come down off his price and he said son,
let me give you some cowboy adviceThere's a few things a man needs to know
As he travels this trail we call life
Like don't ever eat yellow snow
Or bed down with a tougher mans wife
Get your water upstream from the herd
But the best lesson I've ever learned isGood saddles ain't cheap
But there're worth every dime
And you'll be glad you've got one
When you're on a long ride
You know a deal and a bargain
Are often misunderstood
Good saddles ain't cheap
Cheap saddles ain't goodSaid, you might save yourself a few dollars
Feel pretty smart at the time
But there's nothing that hurts any smarter
Than a galled raw blistered behind
And you're vertebraes all out of whack
Not to mention your poor horses backGood saddles ain't cheap
But there're worth every dime
And you'll be glad you've got one
When you're on a long ride
You know a deal and a bargain
Are often misunderstood
Good saddles ain't cheap
Cheap saddles ain't goodIt depends on what you want to spend
But you get what you pay for my friendGood saddles ain't cheap
But there're worth every dime
And you'll be glad you've got one
When you're on a long ride
You know a deal and a bargain
Are often misunderstood
Good saddles ain't cheap
Cheap saddles ain't goodGood saddles ain't cheap
Cheap saddles ain't good
