Buckskin Gelding

Written by John Teague

Well he wanted a fight

Two bears can't climb

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

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

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

Imma take back what's rightfully mine


Cause I

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

Imma take back my buckskin gelding
