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
