M. C. Horses
By Ian Tyson sung by Brenn Hill
Album: Rangefire
Artist biography
Havin' a drink at Stockman's
Listenin' to the guitars' ring
Jesse says you know they sold the M.C. Horses
I'll be dammed when was that
I hadn't heard a thing
Back in August one hundred head or more
Yeah the people they come from everywhere
Just to bid on 'em high and low
Thereby own a piece of that legend
With the cow herd all dispersed the old cavy she had to go
Back in August, one hundred head or more
So come on boys run 'em in
We're gonna let this sale begin
Last of the big remudas
Of the mighty M.C.
There's horses here for everyone
So saddle 'em kids let's get her done
By the time the Oregon sun goes down
This outfit's history
This outfit's history
So the M.C. crew they rode 'em in
People all gathered round
And one old boy he gave two grand for Banjo
But Banjo took his trailer apart
When they tried to load him up for town
Back in August, one hundred head or more
So if you ever have a beer at the Adel Store
W
Say hi to Chuck and Annie
They show you them big old steer heads up there hanging
When you ask where have they gone
So there gone like the M.C. Cavy
Back in August, one hundred head or more
So come on boys run 'em in
We're gonna let this sale begin
Last of the big remudas
Of the mighty M.C.
There's horses here for everyone
So saddle 'em kids let's get her done
By the time the Oregon sun goes down
This outfit's history
This outfit's history
Having a drink at Stockman's
Way out on the sagebrush sea
N' Jesse says you know they sold the M.C. Horses
