I Hate Horses (Stirrup Charm) lyrics

[Verse 1]
Bobby was a cowboy
He liked to roam the Range
It's a bar near Great Neck
The man sold vans and he was strange

[Verse 2]
Found a stirrup in the gutter
Did a bourbon stumble home
Laid the thing beside my pillow
Smelled like garbage and ice-cream cone

[Chorus]
I hate horses
All my friends drew horses
Never looked that free to me
Scared and crazy as can be
I hate, I hate horses

[Verse 3]
Marina mimosas
Another dude, another time
Said the stirrup changed the world
Like the printing press or Patsy Cline

[Verse 4]
He took me home to his pick-up
We drank booze and watched the stars
Said he team-roped in the rodeo
That's code for something people do in cars
[Chorus]
I hate horses
All my friends drew horses
Never looked that free to me
Scared and crazy as can be
I hate, I hate horses

[Verse 5]
But I got one stirrup to my name
Cracked and dirty stirrup for my claim
Trick rider, won't you lean down for me?
I'm dying in this dust

[Chorus]
Oh, I hate horses
All my friends drew horses
Never looked that free to me
Scared and crazy as can be
I hate, I hate horses
I hate, I hate horses
