You’re packed up and tacked up and hittin’ the trail
What lies ahead Heaven knows
The road is wide open to write your own tale
So here’s my wish for you as you go
I hope you ride a wide circle ‘round troublin’ times
Keep the wind at your back, stars in your eyes
May you find a pard who is one of a kind
And ride a wide circle ‘round troublin’ times
Oh ride a wide circle 'round troublin’ times
Sit tall in the saddle and find your own path
Lead with your whole heart and soul
Lean into the future and learn from the past
And know that you’re never alone and
I hope you ride a wide circle ‘round troublin’ times
Keep the wind at your back, stars in your eyes
May you find a pard who is one of a kind
And ride a wide circle ‘round troublin’ times
Oh ride a wide circle 'round troublin’ times
You’ll have highs and lows, joy and sorrow
So love, love, love like there’s no tomorrow and
I hope you ride a wide circle ‘round troublin’ times
Keep the wind at your back, stars in your eyes
May you find a pard who is one of a kind
And ride a wide circle ‘round troublin’ times
Oh ride a wide circle 'round troublin’ times
You’re packed up and tacked up and hittin’ the trail
