Horse and Saddle

These blankets are thin, and the highway is near
I keep checking the fridge, but there is no beer
And I can keep my mind from dwelling on dreams
That won’t come true
I’m out here following through
Stopped in a town I cannot recall
Somebody’s crying across the hall
And I can keep my mind
Focused on the work that I must do
I’m out here following through
I’m following through
You could bet the horse and the saddle, too
I’ll do what I say, I say what I do
I’m out here following through
The painting didn’t finish
Like it was in your head
It was made for the grand foyer
But it’s hanging in the basement instead
And you can try and try 'til the day you die
What else are you supposed to do?
But you’re not a fool for following through
You’re following through
You could bet the horse and the saddle, too
You do what you say, you say what you do
But you’re not a fool for following through
I’m following through, I’m following through
You could bet the horse and the saddle, too
I’ll do what I say, I say what I do
