Horse and Buggy Rag

What could I do to get the horse and buggy days back?
What I’d do?
What I’d do?
To get the water from the well and the fat from the land not the fast track
What I’d do?
What I’d do?
Sure I’d have to drink some liquor if I had a cut to stitch
And I wouldn’t be rich
Or in high demand
But I’d sure love to take my horse and buggy home, Mac.
'Deed I would!
'Deed I would!

Well, I wish I was there on "The Battle Of Deputies Run"
'Deed I would!
'Deed I do!
I’d be wearing my best and standing out there in the sun
'Deed I would!
'Deed I would!
I’d have my butt end of my pistol pointing to the mess
And I’d pull that pistol
My law wouldn’t let me rest
Why I wish I was there on "The Battle Of Deputy Run"
'Deed I do!
'Deed I do!

And I could wait for my lassie while she’s bound on the homeward train
'Deed I would!
'Deed I would!
And we could marry on a word and never have trouble again
'Deed I would!
'Deed I would!
I could be a high rolling tycoon in the moonshine trade
Roll into town in my buggy coach and make my daily promenade
What could I do to get the horse and buggy days back?
What I’d do?
What I’d do?

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏 ... more
