John Elton - One Horse Town-Elton John Bernie Taupin James 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



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



And they ain't too well acquainted with the stars and stripes

But if you want to hear Susanna then they'll pick all night

They'll pick all night



'Cause it's 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

There's nothing to steal 'cause there's simply nothing much around



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 get out of this one horse town

There's nothing to steal 'cause there's nothing much around
