Elton John - One Horse Town lyrics
[Elton John - One Horse Town lyrics]
Saw a Cadillac for the first time yesterday
I'd always seen horses, buggies, bales of hay
'Cause progress here don't move
With modern times there's nothing to steal
So there's not a great deal of crime
(Oh, oh)
It sure is hell living in a one horse town
There's half a mile of Alabama mud bed ground
Nothing much doing of an afternoon
Unless you're sitting in a rocking
Chair just picking a tune (Oh, oh)
And they ain't too well acquainted
With the Stars and Stripes
But if you wanna hear Susanna
Then they'll pick all night
They'll pick all night
'Cause no dice living in a one horse town
Laid back, as my old coon hound
And I just can't wait to get
Out of this one horse town
Nothing to steal because there's
Simply nothing much around (Oh, oh)
And they ain't too well acquainted
With the Stars and Stripes
But if you wanna hear Susanna
Then they'll pick all night
They'll pick all night
Sure is hell living in this one horse town
There's half a mile of Alabama mud bed ground
And I just can't wait to grow
Out of this one horse town
There's nothing to steal 'cause
There's nothing much around (Oh, oh)
I'd always seen horses, buggies, bales of hay
'Cause progress here don't move
With modern times there's nothing to steal
So there's not a great deal of crime
(Oh, oh)
It sure is hell living in a one horse town
There's half a mile of Alabama mud bed ground
Nothing much doing of an afternoon
Unless you're sitting in a rocking
Chair just picking a tune (Oh, oh)
And they ain't too well acquainted
With the Stars and Stripes
But if you wanna hear Susanna
Then they'll pick all night
They'll pick all night
'Cause no dice living in a one horse town
Laid back, as my old coon hound
And I just can't wait to get
Out of this one horse town
Nothing to steal because there's
Simply nothing much around (Oh, oh)
And they ain't too well acquainted
With the Stars and Stripes
But if you wanna hear Susanna
Then they'll pick all night
They'll pick all night
Sure is hell living in this one horse town
There's half a mile of Alabama mud bed ground
And I just can't wait to grow
Out of this one horse town
There's nothing to steal 'cause
There's nothing much around (Oh, oh)
