Saddle Up The Palomino Lyrics

Saddle Up The Palomino

Oh, oh, Carmelina,

 The daughter of the wealthy banker.

 Since she came to town all my friends are gone,

 And I'm stuck out here with melody.

 

 [Chorus]

 Saddle up the palomino;

 The sun is going down.

 The way I feel, this must be real.

 Ooh.

 

 If you can't cut it,

 Don't pick up the knife.

 There's no reward in your conscience stored

 When you're sleepin' with another man's wife.

 

 [Repeat]

 

 I wanna lick the platter;

 The gravy doesn't matter.

 It's a cold bowl of chilli when love lets you down,

 But it's the neighbor's wife I'm after.

 

 [Repeat]
