Bing Crosby Empty Saddles Lyrics

Empty Saddles Lyrics

VERSE 1: There's something strange in the old corral
There's a breeze, though
the wind has died
Though I'm alone in the old corral,
Seems there is
someone at my side

CHORUS: Empty saddles in the old corral,
Where do
ya ride tonight?
Are ya roundin' up the dogies,
The strays of long
ago,
Are ya on the trail of buffalo?
Empty saddles in the old
corral,
Where do ya ride tonight?
Are there rustlers on the border,
Or
a band of Navajo
Are ya headin' for the Alamo?
Empty guns covered with
rust
Where do ya talk tonight?
Empty boots covered with dust
Where do
ya walk tonight?
Empty saddles in the old corral,
My tears would be dried
tonight
If you'll only say I'm lonely,
As ya carry my old pal
Empty
saddles in the old corral

VERSE 2: There is no smoke, still the fires
burn,
There's no song, still I hear guitars,
There is no dust, still the
ghosts return
Softly to vanish thru the bars
