Lyrics

[Verse]
Out on the sand
My buggy broke down
Horse and his dreams were left in the town
The wheels
They spun
But they wouldn’t go
Left me stranded where the sea winds blow

[Verse 2]
Dragged her to Burt's
Where the wrenches sing
He said
“She’s tangled worse than fishing string.”
Maine's salt air made her iron veins weak
He promised to fix her
But a week turned to three

[Chorus]
Oh
The buggy’s in the shop
Week by week
And my horse is restless
His heart feels bleak
He longs for the dunes where the sea gulls cry
But the buggy’s still broken
And the days roll by

[Verse 3]
Built for the mountains
For rock and sand
My buggy’s home was a rugged land
But up in Maine
Where the frost takes hold
The sea and rust carved stories untold

[Verse 4]
Burt keeps muttering
“Just wait a spell
”
Says he’s wrestling the buggy like a hound from hell
Horse chews his bridle
Pawing the floor
He’s ready to leave when Burt fixes her core

[Chorus]
Oh
The buggy’s in the shop
Week by week
And my horse is restless
His heart feels bleak
He longs for the dunes where the sea gulls cry
But the buggy’s still broken
And the days roll by
