High Ridin’ Heroes - Tanya Tucker

Daylight or midnight

Red eyes and that old hat

Whiskey-bent and busted flat

She’s a credit to her flaws

She’s a bad risk, but a good friend

Small change and loose ends

She only regrets that she might’ve been

A little faster on the draw

Those old high ridin' heroes

They’re anywhere the wind blows

She’s been to hell and Texas

And she knows how it feels

To be ridin' that hot streak

And drunk on some back street

Falling off the wagon

And under the wheels

Time was when she was queen

Now the rodeo’s just this old girl’s dream

The highs are few and far between

The lows get the rest

These old hard times ain’t nothin' new

Once you’ve done the best you can do

You just tip your hat to the wild and blue

And you ride off to the west

Those old high ridin' heroes

They’re anywhere the wind blows

She’s been to hell and Texas

And she knows how it feels

To be ridin' that hot streak

And drunk on some back street

Falling off the wagon

And under the wheels

Those old high ridin' heroes

They’re anywhere the wind blows

She’s been to hell and Texas

And she knows how it feels

To be ridin' that hot streak

And drunk on some back street

Falling off the wagon

And under the wheels
