Testo Let 'em Run Lacy J Dalton
Up in Storey County where the wild ponies run
And the gold was mined that fueled the civil war
Thereâs a fierce but friendly people
And if you ask âem to a one, theyâll tell you
Thereâs still a lotta things worth fighting for
Up in Storey County the Mustangs still run free
The eagle soars above the Pinion pines
And these horses stand for something
That is precious and more rare
Than all the silver and the gold from them olâ mines
CHORUS:
So let âem run
Let them wild ponies run
Donât you brand âem, donât you break âem
Donât you let the killers
Take a single one â Let âem run
BRIDGE:
In a world where fences
Scar the earth
From sun to risinâ sun
Thereâs still a few proud places left
Where they let the wild things run
Let âem run
Up in Storey County in the high Nevada hills
Freedom rides the wayward western wind
And the Mustang is a symbol
With its wild and fiery will
Of the way the west will never be again
CHORUS:
So let âem run
Let them wild ponies run
Donât you brand âem, donât you break âem
Donât you let the killers
Take a single one â Let âem run
Let them wild ponies run
Donât you brand âem, donât you break âem
Donât you let the killers
Take a single one â Let âem run
