Gillian Welch - Six White Horses Lyrics

Artist: Gillian Welch

Album: The Harrow & The Harvest

Genre: Country

Six white horses coming two by two
Six white horses coming two by two
Coming for my mother, no matter how I love her
Six white horses coming two by two

Whoa now horses, easy on the wheels
Whoa now horses, easy on the wheels
So broken-hearted up now they started
Whoa now horses, easy on the wheels

See them horses pulling on a rein
See them horses pulling on a rein
Sunshine and sorrow, yesterday, tomorrow
Bedlam and Barlow Billy are their names

Some bright morning what will you see
Some bright morning what will you see
Some bright morning looking on it coming
Some bright morning what will you see

Six white horses coming after me
Six white horses coming after me
Pretty as a picture, certain as a scripture
Six white horses coming after me

  • Hazel Pj Grey

    duh.....

  • Andy Thomas

    In the 3rd verse, I think Sunshine, Sorrow, Yesterday, Tomorrow, Bedlam, and Barlow Billy are the names of the 6 horses.
