Faster Horses (The Cowboy Poet - Tom T.Hall[00:00:00]

Written by：Tom T.Hall[00:00:01]

He was an old time cowboy don't you understand[00:00:08]

His eyes were sharp as razor blades his face was leather tan[00:00:13]

His toes were pointed inward from a hanging on a horse[00:00:17]

He was an old philosopher of course[00:00:21]

He was so thin I swear you could have used him for a whip[00:00:25]

He had to drink a beer to keep his britches on his hips[00:00:29]

I knew I had to ask him about the mysteries of life[00:00:33]

He spit between his boots and he replied[00:00:37]

It's faster horses younger women[00:00:41]

Older whiskey and more money[00:00:45]

He smiled and all his teeth were covered with tobacco stains[00:00:56]

He said it don't do men no good to pray for peace and rain[00:01:01]

Peace and rain is just a way to say prosperity[00:01:05]

And buffalo chips is all it means to me[00:01:09]

I told him I was a poet I was looking for the truth[00:01:13]

I do not care for horses whiskey women or the loot[00:01:17]

I said I was a writer my soul was all on fire[00:01:21]

He looked at me and he said you are a liar[00:01:25]

Sunny faster horses younger women[00:01:28]

Older whiskey and more money[00:01:33]

Well I was disillusioned if I say the least[00:01:44]

I grabbed him by the collar and I jerked him to his feet[00:01:48]

There was something cold and shiny laying by my head[00:01:53]

So I started to believe the things he said[00:01:56]

Well my poet days are over and I'm back to being me[00:02:00]

As I enjoy the peace and comfort of reality[00:02:05]

If my boy ever asks me what it is that I have learned[00:02:09]

I think that I will readily affirm[00:02:13]

Sunny faster horses younger women[00:02:16]

Older whiskey and more money[00:02:21]

Faster horses younger women[00:02:25]

Older whiskey and more money[00:02:29]

Faster horses younger women[00:02:34]

Older whiskey and more money[00:02:38]

Faster horses younger women[00:02:42]

Older whiskey and more money[00:02:46]
