Buddies in the Saddle The Carter Family One stormy day, me and my buddy Started on our roundup ride The wind and dust blew hard around us My buddy strayed far from my side We were buddies in the saddle We were buddies in our home We were buddies herdin' cattle We were buddies everywhere we roamed I'll ne'er forget the day I found him He was so weak he could not speak I'll ne'er forget the smile he gave me Then the poor boy fell asleep I took him up in my saddle and carried him across the plain My mother nursed him every moment to try to make him well again I've never had a pal so near me He took the blame for everything I'd die for him just any moment And for me he'd do the same But now my buddy's gone and left me And it's so hard to struggle on So hard to b'lieve that he has left me I can't realize that he has gone   alles-uke.de
