Before The Blanket And The Saddle (Larry W Jones 09/04/2019) (song #7593)

Before the blanket and the saddle
In the west were mustangs running free
Before the blanket and the saddle
Wild is how mustangs were meant to be

But broken promises and treaties
Broke the spirit of horse and red man
Before the blanket and the saddle
Rode the freedom of the mustang band

Now, don’t call them cayuse or broncos
Mustang’s the name by which they are known
Before the blanket and the saddle
Mustangs ran the range which was their home

Indians gave the mustangs freedom
To run just like the wind in the sun
There’s no reason in God’s creation
Why we can’t let ‘em run, let ‘em run

Before the blanket and the saddle
Mustangs, like the wind were running free
