Bobby Charles - Saddle Up The Palomino lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] If you can't cut it Don't pick up the knife There's no reward In your conscience stored When you're sleeping With another man's wife [Chorus] [Verse 3] I want to lick the platter The gravy doesn't matter It's a cold bowl of chili When love lets you down But it's the neighbor's wife I'm after [Chorus]
