lyrics

Two Wild Horseswith all my heart for “Johan” from “Sonny Boy” Zain – rest in peace Dad

He knew my father from the old Country
Moved to America, the “land of the free”
Then my Daddy died in 1963
The dark horse of emptiness came-a-ridin’ after me

[chorus] Rescue me, rescue me
My home is broken, they just can’t see
My scattered family has no time for me
I lost my will, yet I can’t sit still, rescue me

I had no father and he had no son,
He was a pistol; I was a son-of-a-gun
He told me stories oh how he enchanted me
To take off these saddles let two wild horses run free

[chorus] Rescue me, he rescued me
My home was broken, they just can’t see
My shattered family had no time for me
But I found my will, still I can’t sit still,
Rescue me

[bridge] Back in school I was so hard to handle
Mama tried the best that she can
Those days were dark like a guiding candle
This kind stranger lent a hand

[instrumental]

All he ever wanted was a little company
Each day I realize what this man done for me
His last request hey it really got to me
“Scatter my ashes where two wild horses once ran free

Rescue me, Dad look at me
I’m one lost pony like when you first met me
Two wild horses someday again we’ll be
I’ll smile the day and I’ll run your way
When the Big Cowboy in the sky rescues me
