One Horse Town

One Horse Town - Elton John (艾爾頓·約翰)

Written by：Elton John/James Newton-Howard

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

Hair 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

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

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
