Lyrics
I Miss My Hoss - Tony Houston, T-Notes Music, BMI
When I was a lad of 10, my paw called me outside one spring morn,
“Son, I got you a hoss.”
He was already saddled, and we went for a ride
I can still remember that day, the wind caressing my face, as we rode with the rhythm of life.
That was 15yrs ago, and just the other day I had to put him down.
I didn’t cry, even though my heart was broke.
He was such a good friend, we had great time riding with the wind.
But I knew I had to let him go – ooh, ooh how I miss my hoss.
We would ride for days, checkin’ the fence line,
He was always sure-footed, even walking thru scrub pine.
He never bucked or kicked,
and was always gentle around the kids, ooh, ooh how I miss my hoss.
Yes, I knew one day our time would come,
And his spirit in the sky, he’s always feeling young.
Ooh, ooh how I miss my hoss, ooh, ooh how I miss my hoss,
You know he never bucked or kicked,
and was always gentle around the kids, ooh, ooh how I miss my hoss.
