Για μια δεκαετία περίπου, από τα middle ‘90s μέχρι τα middle ‘00s οι Sixteen Horsepower του David Eugene Edwards αποτέλεσαν μια σημαντική φωνή της εναλλακτικής σκηνής της country.
Τους ακούμε στο έξοχο I Seen What I Saw από το άλμπουμ τους Sackcloth ’N ‘ Ashes.

For about a decade, from the mid-90s to the mid-00s, David Eugene Edwards’ Sixteen Horsepower have been an important voice of the alternative country scene.
We hear them on the superb I Seen What I Saw from their 1996 album Sackcloth ‘N’ Ashes.

I seen ya in your red room laughin’
With your shinin’ coffee can
So many wrongs all kinds a goins on
Held my head an ran
But I hid and did a bit more lookin’
Saw ya dancin’ on the pine porch creakin’
Mouth open an doors down wide
Here’s what was inside
I seen what I saw
An these things I do are wrong, that’s all
An these tales I tales I tell are tall
Then I climbed up on the big horse strapin’
Put the spur down to blood
He took off 16 horses strong
Left me lyin’ in mud
An there I sit until the sun’s up shinin’
Yes an black stands my ride
Twenty hands high
An watchin’ spookeyed
My hands on his side
