Ten Seconds In The Saddle Lyrics by Chris Ledoux


Chris Ledoux Lyrics

Well I'll gladly take ten seconds in the saddle
For a lifetime of watching from the stands

His Stetson was faded and battered and worn
The stubble of his beard showed flecks of gray
His limp was severe 'cause a leg had been torn
By a bronc, in his rodeo days
He hung round the chutes while we waited to mount
With a vague look of longing in his eyes
He spoke very few words but he made 'em count
He was broken forgotten but wise

He said life is just like ridin' broncs it's a battle
Then he rolled a cigarette with shaky hands
Son I'll gladly take ten seconds in the saddle
For a lifetime of watching from the stands

I noticed the cigarette burns on his vest
And the remnant of a dream left in his eyes
The boys said he could have well been the best
Had not fate cheated him of his prize
Oh but I learned a lesson that I'd never know
From this guy who'd been busted so bad
It's better to ride even if you get thrown
Than to wind up just wishin' you had

He said life is just like ridin' broncs it's a battle
Then he rolled a cigarette with shaky hands
Son I'll gladly take ten seconds in the saddle
For a lifetime of watching from the stands
Yes I'll gladly take ten seconds in the saddle
For a lifetime of watching from the stands

[Thanks to Bex for lyrics]
