One Trick Pony
I met you at the courthouse, when I was black and blue
And I pleaded my innocence, but knew it wasn't true
So we shacked up on the outskirts of some old one horse town
And slowly drained the drinking holes, until they run us out
You show up on that ledge of mine just ruining my view
I was getting by just fine bettin' high with the men like you
Till I lost me that hand cause I just do as I please
Well I built me a house of cards and you blew in like the breeze
You'll see I'm a phony and I'm gonna let you down
I'm a one trick pony in a one horse town
I'm just a one trick pony in a one horse town
I got me a reputation you don't wanna catch
Highly contagious with my knife stuck in your back
They'll tar you with the same old brush, a good for nothing thief
And I don't need no preacher's son praying on a cross for me
You'll see I'm a phony and I'm gonna let you down
I'm a one trick pony in a one horse town
I'm just a one trick pony in a one horse town
Baby I don't wanna let you down no more you keep coming back to me
But wait till all my tricks run out, I'll come barking up your tree
Crying I'ma learn my lesson now oh just you wait and see
Cause maybe you're supposed to be the better half of me
Baby I'm a phony and I'm gonna let you down
I'm a one trick pony in a one horse town,
I'm Just a one trick pony in a one horse town
Baby I don't wanna let you down no more you keep coming back to me
But wait till all my tricks run out I'll come barking up your tree
Cryin' I'ma learn my lesson now oh just you wait and see
Cause baby you're supposed to be the better half of me
Baby I'm a phony and you're gonna find out
I'm a one trick pony in a one horse town
Just a one trick pony in a one horse town
I'm a one trick pony in a one horse town
On trick pony in a one horse town.
