Caballo Diablo |
Wild as a coastal barronca swift as the wind blowing free |
With two eyes like fire brands that glow in the night |
Somewhere up there he’s waiting for me And he knows that I’m coming' for him and I just can’t rest till I find |
That raven black stallion that wears no man’s brand with a wild restless spirit |
like mine |
They call him Caballo Diablo half-horse half-devil they say |
Caballo Diablo the outlaw up a top the Sierra Madre |
Two men before tried to take him they had their chance one by one |
But each met his fate when those flashing' black hooves |
Brought death 'neath the Mexican sun |
Still I can’t leave I must find him you fool of a horse can’t you see |
Well I may be half man but the other half’s devil and you’re just exactly like |
me They call him Caballo Diablo… |
Even the breezes stopped moving hush now be still |
Don’t make a sound stay close to the ground cause he’s waitin' just over that |
hill |
Downwind behind him move quickly do it fast now he’s starting to stir |
Grab a handful of mane and up on to his back |
And start raking him down with your spurs |
But try as he will he can’t shake me as over the precipice we go To she’d the life blood of a horse and a man on the rocky sierra below |
They call him Caballo Diablo… |
