Hi, I’m Country Carl welcome to a song update on Riding the Ridge. I just got back from Beau Robinson Music where I layed down some tracks to a new song called Hobo Up and another called Bridge to Tulsa. There was some discussion about me re-recording this song that was released on the flip side of the New Depression Blues by artist Beau Robinson in 1982. The Riding the Ridge song lyrics are by Pat Robinson who was actually riding a horse when he penned this romatic visual country landscape. I wrote the progession on my Martin 12 string and in no time I had rough in a melody which Pat and I perfected. This song is dedicated to those who like to ride horseback and like the sound of a acostic 12 string. I can't wait to record this gem at Beau Robinson Music. God Bless You - and may your journey on horseback be one in which you remember this song...... Country Carl..... Lyrics Below

Here are the lyrics to Country Carl's Riding The Ridge:

Riding The Ridge I was thinking of you, the wind blowing back to the sky turning blue.
My horse needed water I found him a stream, and while he was drinking I started to dream.

Maybe the maybes you gave me before were like a woman's promise when she's not really sure.
I woke up that morning to tell you much more, and saw you were leaving, going out through the door.

The chances you gave me returned with the pain. The clouds started moving I rode through the rain.
Inside my cabin, the coffee was black. I wrote you a letter. You never wrote back.

Maybe the maybes you gave me before were like a woman's promise when she's not really sure.
I woke up that morning to tell you much more, and saw you were leaving, going out through the door.
