High Horse Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, I bet you think you're John Wayne
Showing up and shooting down everybody
You're classic in the wrong way
And we all know the end of the story
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause everyone knows someone who kills the buzz
Every time they open up their mouth
Yeah, everyone knows someone who knows someone
Who thinks they're cooler than everybody else
[Chorus]
And I think we've seen enough, seen enough
To know that you ain't ever gonna come down
So, why don't you giddy up, giddy up
And ride straight out of this town?
You and your high horse, mmm-mmm
You and your high horse, mmm-mmm
[Verse 2]
I bet you think you're first place
Yeah, someone should give you a ribbon
And put you in the hall of fame
For all the games that you think that you're winning
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause everyone knows someone who kills the buzz
Every time they open up their mouth
Yeah, everyone knows someone who knows someone
Who thinks they're cooler than everybody else
[Chorus]
And I think we've seen enough, seen enough
To know that you ain't ever gonna come down
So, why don't you giddy up, giddy up
And ride straight out of this town?
You and your high horse, mmm-mmm
You and your high horse, mmm-mmm
[Bridge]
Darling, you take the high horse and I'll take the high road
Mmm-mmm
If you're too good for us, you'll be good riding solo
[Chorus]
Yeah, I think we've seen enough, seen enough
To know that you ain't ever gonna come down
So, why don't you giddy up, giddy up
And ride straight out of this town?
You and your high horse, mmm-mmm
You and your high horse, mmm-mmm
High horse, mmm-mmm
You ain't ever gonna come down
You ain't ever gonna come down

What did Kacey Musgraves say about "High Horse"?
It was a freakin’ blast to do ‘High Horse.’ I mean, I had this title for a while, and just the thought of, you know, we all know that character that’s a little high on themselves. You know, they’re just a little bit arrogant. And I had this title sitting around for a long time and I have my own idea...

Supposedly inspired by a world where the Bee Gees were introduced to country music, the track gives its sanctimonious subject a sassy and scathing what for, with all the brilliant and dizzy “giddy up, gidd...
