well  I rode out  to the ocean
 and the water  looked like tarnished gold
I  rode out on a broken  horse
 who told  me she'd never felt so  old
she  asked me if I'd feed her
 and ride  her now and then
no  no no, no no no, no no no,
 I break horses
 I don't tend to them
   (Hoooooooo)
 I break horses
 they seem to come  to me
   (Hoooooooo)
 asking to be broken
 they seem to run  to me
   (Hoooooooo)
 I break horses
 doesn't take me long
 just a few  well-placed words
 and their wandering  hearts are gone
well  at first her warmth felt good between my  legs
living  breathing heart-beating flesh
but  soon that warmth turned to an itch
 turned to a scratch
 turned to a gash
 I break
 I break  horses
 I don't tend to  them
tonight  I'm swimming to my favorite island
and  I don't want to see you swimming behind
tonight  I'm swimming to my favorite island
and  I don't want to see you swimming behind
 no I break horses
 I don't tend to them
