Rosettes are pinned on the wardrobe
Certificates hang by the door
It's horses and horses and horses again
That's all she seems to live for
Then comes the day
She'll put them away
Hide herself secretly
In a diary with a lock and a key
She's galloping, galloping over the plain
The young girls are galloping, galloping again,
Holding their horses and reigning them back
Handling stallions with bridle and tack
It'll help them to handle the men in their lives
Horses will teach them to ride
Horses will teach them to ride
Four legs are sold for four wheels
No more Sunday afternoon chills
Instead of outside in the cold and the damp
She's indoors finding new thrills
And she knows what it meant
By a three day event
And life is one long hunter trial
And she'll challenge it all with a smile
She's galloping, galloping over the plain
The young girls are galloping, galloping again,
Horses for courses they're spurring them on
Gentling geldings to ride to the hounds
It'll help them to handle the men in their lives
Horses will teach them to ride
Horses will teach them to ride
