Buckskin Gelding

Well, he wanted a fight
Two bears can't climb a branch and hide on the same damn tree
It was the hunger alone or that slow bitter burn
That finally sent forth anxiety
I got nothing to lose, got a hair on my chest
If today is the day, let it be my best
We could cast aside the things that make us friends
Between you and I, let's settle this

'Cause I bet you a hundred
I bet you a mare
I bet you ain't a man
Bet you're just scared
Well, what will be with veins in his neck
I bet you that buckskin gelding
I bet you that buckskin gelding

Blow after blow
Eyes, fists, and nose, lip to a tooth
Boy, there was blood
Yeah, between all the rage and the dirt on their face
From the outside you can't determine
That giants had fought and wars have been lost
With less effort between enemies
When these worlds collide and old grudges die
Losing and winning is brief

'Cause I bet you a hundred
I bet you a mare
I bet you ain't a man
Bet you're just scared
Well, what will be with veins in his neck
I bet you that buckskin gelding
I bet you that buckskin gelding
He said, "Don't you lie
A man's only good as his word
I'll be comin' by
To take back what's rightfully mine
I'ma take back what is rightfully mine"

'Cause I bet you a hundred
I bet you a mare
I bet you ain't a man, bet you're fucking scared
Well, what will be with veins in his neck
I bet you that buckskin gelding
I'ma take back my buckskin gelding
