about

"Riding Fences"...just what it sounds like. The life of a line rider--a cowboy who rode around checking to make sure the fences were intact so the cattle couldn't stray.

lyrics

hitchin' post - pull that cinch tight
warm that bit in my hand or I know
she gonna put up a fight

silhouettes - early mornin' light
one last chance at the water tank
close the gate behind you tight

as you ride the fence along
riding fences all day long
as you ride along

would you say the work is hard?
would you say the pay is short
and the day is long?

but you know you're heart is free
and you know this is where
you will always be

chorus

in the early mornin' light
riding fences
