(Music and lyrics by Harmony James)
Never did get that painted pony
The western saddle and the silver bridle
I got me a whole lot of trouble
But I never did get that painted pony
Never did win that young man’s heart
Sky blue eyes and hair so dark
I won me some money in a card game
But I never did win his heart
I’ve got a scar on my shoulder a cross on a chain
A list of places I won’t go again
I’ve got a hankering for the western wind
And I never did make it back
Never did darken that door again
It might have cost me a couple good childhood friends
I climbed out a window when they shut me in
But I never did darken that door
I’ve got a scar on my shoulder a cross on a chain
A list of places I won’t go again
I’ve got a hankering for the western wind
And I never did make it back
My last wishes well I ain’t got none
Spent my life how I shouldn’t have done
But I’d do it over if the chance would come
Cause I never did like regrets
I’ve got a scar on my shoulder a cross on a chain
A list of places I won’t go again
I’ve got a hankering for the western wind
And I never did make it back
I’ve got a scar on my shoulder a cross on a chain
A list of places I won’t go again
I’ve got a hankering for the western wind
And I never did make it back
