Horse Sense

You see your future

You sense the light and shade

You say you’re older now

You think you’ve got it made

Enough is enough

I’ll take the smooth with the rough

You’re on the brink

You can lead a horse to water

But you can’t make him think

You risk an answer

You say the hell with you

Well that’s pretty clever now

A simple no would do

You must be out of your mind 

To leave the world behind

Ever thought of turning to drink?

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him think

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him think

And I know, I know 

I don’t know it all

But I keep my mouth shut, at least I try sometimes

When I am sleeping 

I hardly say a word

You give it all away, You just don’t seem to care

How low can you sink

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him think

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him think

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him think
