Painted horse

Words & music by Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan, Roger Glover, Jon Lord and Ian Paice

Child on a painted horse
Streams that will run their course
Gone to a far away shore
Ooh ooh ah
My painted horse is weeping

Days of another kind
Frost gets a bruising vine
Why did the carpenter die?
Ooh ooh ah
My painted horse is weeping

Sweet as a rose so fine
Peaceful as a final time
How old could the lion man cry?
Ooh ooh ah
My painted horse is weeping

Thoughts of a winter moon
Warm in a distant room
Why did I fall asleep so soon?
Ooh ooh ah
My painted horse is weeping
