Buckskin Stallion Blues

Townes Van Zandt

by Townes Van Zandt



I heard her sing in tongues of silver

I heard her cry on a summer storm

I loved her, but she did not know it

so I don't think about her anymore

Now she's gone, and I can't believe it

so I don't think about her anymore



If three and four was seven only

where would that leave one and two?

If love can be and still be lonely

where does that leave me and you?

Time there was, and time there will be

where does that leave me and you?



If I had a buckskin stallion

I'd tame him down and ride away.

If I had a flyin' schooner

I'd sail into the light of day

If I had your love forever

sail into the light of day



Pretty songs and pretty places

places that I've never seen

pretty songs and pretty faces

tell me what their laughter means

some look like they'll cry forever

tell me what their laughter means.



If I had a buckskin stallion

I'd tame him down and ride away.

If I had a golden galleon

I'd sail into the light of day

If I had your love forever

sail into the light of day
