Question
I heard a song on the radio while traveling to texas one time and the station neither gave the title or performing artist. It has been several years ago at least 5 and since I have never heard it again I only   remember a few of the words mainly the "hook" (if wishes were horses beggars would ride) This song rocked so I would dearly love to find the title, lyrics, and performing artist. Thanks for your attention.

Answer
If these are the lyrics, then it is by Bryan Adams,
I did a bit of research to find it,  I am not familiar with the song, and Bryan Adams showed up on the scene after rock music mostly had fizzled out,  so I am not real familiar with his music.

Come with me you can wish upon a star

You can do all the things that you've longed to

And you won't have to wonder who you are

You can be anybody you want to

In a land full of promises and kings

All your best laid dreams are for catchin'

You can have the world to tie up on a string

Just close your eyes and imagine



If wishes were horses

Beggars would ride

All dreams and desires would ride along side

Worries and troubles would fall off behind

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride



To a land far or near come along

There's an all new-round everyday glow

Like the young girl sang in the song

"Somewhere over the rainbow"
