I'm gonna steal me a silver stallion,
With not a mark upon his silky hide.
Teach him he can trust me like a brother,
One day we'll saddle up and ride.

And we're gonna ride, we're gonna ride.
Ride like the one-eyed jack of diamonds,
With the devil close behind.
We're gonna ride.

I'm gonna find me a reckless woman,
Razor blades and dice in her eyes.
Just a touch of sadness in her fingers,
Thunder and lightnin' in her thighs.

And we're gonna ride, we're gonna ride.
Ride like the one-eyed jack of diamonds,
With the devil close behind.
We're gonna ride.

I'm gonna chase the sky forever,
With the woman and the stallion and the wind.
And the sun is gonna burn into a cinder,
Before we ever pass this way again.

And we're gonna ride, we're gonna ride.
Ride like the one-eyed jack of diamonds,
With the devil close behind.
We're gonna ride.
