Justin Mcbride Good Saddles Ain't Cheap Lyrics

Me and my son were in a tack shop one day, he'd just got a pony for his seventh birthday.
He needed a rig and we found one he liked and I was tryin’ to get the old feller to come down off his price and he said son,
let me give you some cowboy advice

There's a few things a man needs to know
As he travels this trail we call life
Like don't ever eat yellow snow
Or bed down with a tougher mans wife
Get your water upstream from the herd
But the best lesson I've ever learned is

Good saddles ain't cheap
But there're worth every dime
And you'll be glad you've got one
When you're on a long ride
You know a deal and a bargain
Are often misunderstood
Good saddles ain't cheap
Cheap saddles ain't good

Said, you might save yourself a few dollars
Feel pretty smart at the time But there's nothing that hurts any smarter
Than a galled raw blistered behind
And you're vertebrae’s all out of whack
Not to mention your poor horses back

Good saddles ain't cheap
But there're worth every dime
And you'll be glad you've got one
When you're on a long ride
You know a deal and a bargain
Are often misunderstood
Good saddles ain't cheap
Cheap saddles ain't good

It depends on what you want to spend
But you get what you pay for my friend

Good saddles ain't cheap
But there're worth every dime
And you'll be glad you've got one
When you're on a long ride
You know a deal and a bargain
Are often misunderstood
Good saddles ain't cheap
Cheap saddles ain't good

Good saddles ain't cheap
Cheap saddles ain't good
