On Horseback

I like beer, and I like cheese I like the smell of a westerly breeze But what I like more than all of these Is to be on horseback [Chorus]: Hey and away we go Through the grass, across the snow Big brown beastie, big brown face I'd rather be with you than flying through space I like thunder, and I like rain And open fires, and roaring flames But if the thunder's in my brain I'd like to be on horseback Some like the city, some the noise Some make chaos, and others, toys But if I was to have the choice I'd rather be on horseback [Chorus] Some find it strange to be here On this small planet, and who knows where But when it's strange and full of fear It's nice to be on horseback Some are short, and others tall Some hit their heads against the wall But it doesn't really matter at all When you happen to be on horseback [Chorus] So if you feel a little glum To Hergest Ridge you should come In summer, winter, rain or sun It's good to be on horseback [Chorus] [Chorus] You know, I'd rather be on horseback
