One Trick Pony

歌詞

I never saw a town where I threw them raises down Didn't know the lonesome sound of a midnight train The kind that calls my name, I was born to play the game Even if it's all in vain, call me what you want I'm bound to tell the truth the way that gambler's rarely do They be tying up your noose and calling you "friend" If it was up to me, like the bluebird, you'd be free Oh this life ain't what it seems if you catch my drift Rich men pretend to be poor Poor folks only want a little bit more What they never had before And it's a crying shame My daddy worked the land And mama raised me with her hands We all do the best we can With the cards we're dealt I ain't one to beg or plead But I could sure use some relief Those who label me a thief for standing up tall And there's a woman on my mind For her I'd gladly give my life And the little girl by her side That wears my name A one-trick pony knows That it's all about the show Life is but a rodeo And you can write that down I best be moving on You turn your head and I'll be gone In this world I won't be long Just like you
