Horses and Women, All my life I've tried to win with Horses and Women They sure keep me in a spin My poor head is swimmin' Tryin' to solve the mystery of Horses and Women They'll be the death of me! Now horses all wear harnesses, But women wear them too. A woman's harness rarely shows to Any man who's lucky with them, They're a dream come true -- But you must have sugar to get close to Those tantalizing women and horses, Though their eyes are soft and warm They love double-crosses You can't judge them by their form They'll melt your resistance Then when you have spent your all They won't go the distance You're riding for a fall! You train them and clock them Even pay their stable fees You groom them and walk them Let them live a life of ease You pet them, stroke them Shove the carrots in their face When some other Joe comes And takes their maiden grace. I asked an old philosopher Who really knows the score He said "My boy, they are the most high! "You must, however, say, don't place your bets too early for The odds keep on changing up to post time!" That's how it goes with Horses and Women, They'll both take you for a ride They'll give you a trimmin', Then go struttin' high and wide. I've tried every system to get in that winner's circle Cussed them and kissed them -- but nothing seems to work! If I was wise, I'd just forget them both and take it easy! Stick to golf and poker or backgammon or parchesi, But I know while I've a long shot left I'll stay With Horses and Women all the way!Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
