lyrics

Didn't know why he always stayed at home.
Horseriding out he never came along.

These reins have got entangled,
whiskey in hand we´ll talk,
but how the west was lost is something I ignore.

She came in, a thief, looked like a queen.
Fooled everyone, stole everything.

So now she's far away
and our love is a wreck,
hope we can get on as friends
