Lyrics:

(feat The Steep Canyon Rangers )



Late at night in the silver light, in the stables eating hay

In came a man, an artisan, and we both rode away

He whispered in my upturned ear, “it’s time to get an’ go”

'Till this job’s done, we breath as one, head for the outbound road”



Me and Paul Revere, oh, me and Paul Revere

I’m the horse he chose of course, me and Paul Revere



He told me that a thousand troops, were out to do their worst

“They want Sam Adams and Hancock, we’ve gotta get there first!”

Along the way to Lexington, the Regulars drew guns

They gave chase and we set pace, those boys they were outrun



Me and Paul Revere, oh, me and Paul Revere

On the run to Lexington, me and Paul Revere



We turned North through Cambridge Town, along the mystic road

Nostrils flared and gallop strong, my legs on fire below

We got up to where they slept, woke Adams and Hancock

And they said “who’s that?

That’s Larkin’s horse, she’s steady as a rock”



Brown Beauty is my name, Brown Beauty is my name

Revere and I one and the same, Brown Beauty is my Name



The Grenadiers are on the move, let’s fill the powder horns

How much more has that horse got, Concord must be warned

Paul Revere gave me the heel, we charged the Concord road

But we were taken prisoner, by ten men on patrol



Me and Paul Revere, oh, me and Paul Revere

I’m the horse he chose of course, me and Paul Revere



He told them that a hundred men, had spread the good alarm

“You better head away from here, for Lexington is armed”

Revere stood tall and fooled them all, told ‘em what to do

And they let him go but sadly so, they took me with them too



I never saw Revere again, I know he thinks of me

And wonders where I ended up, the night we set men free

I’m just the horse that no one knows, I’m famous though inside

But just standing proudly in a field, I was Revere’s ride
