A Horse in Town Songtext

von Steely Dan

Left new Hyde park
The home I own in New york town
Rubbed in the dark
Untill I face the place where scallywags are found
Sharped-end jojo's everywhere
Baby you can take it from there
Now there's a horse in town
I scream: Honey it's just a clown
Yes there's a horse in town
Saddle up and ride, ride, ride
Can you reveal
The day you came, the day you'll go
This way I feel
The time is moving much too slow
And it passes by your chair
If you laugh at my despair
[Chorus]
[Solo]
The shoes of my friend
They stamp the nail into the ground
Let's not pretend
We know we've all had fearsome style
Following my frozen trail
Moving to the inside rail
[Chorus]
