Billy Ray Cyrus Album: The Definitive Collection Track: Fastest Horse in a One Horse Town
Fastest Horse in a One Horse Town Lyrics
On a windin' dirt back road In the hills of Arkansas In a little country farmhouse With his mama and his pa Lived a plain old plough boy By the name of Colton Mall.
He'd never took to farmin' He had racin' in his blood Hope and Will and Mighty Fine Was the only stock he'd run Had a local reputation But for Colt that wasn't enough.
To be the fastest horse in a one horse town He leaves them all in the dust On the fastest tracks around He gets that fire in his eyes And takes off like a gun When the smoke clears Someone in the crowd hollers "Son there goes the fastest horse in a one horse town."
--- Instrumental ---
He beat it to Daytona The big boys laughed and said Looks like they've turned a pack mule loose Among these thoroughbreds Colt said, "This old mule's been places Most blue bloods fear to tread." But a thousand left turns later Foot still on the gas The leader watched a car slip by And beat him to the flag And painted on the trunk There were the words "Boy you just been passed. By the fastest horse in a one horse town." He leaves them all in the dust On the fastest tracks around.
He gets that fire in his eyes And takes off like a gun When the smoke clears Someone in the crowd hollers "Son, there goes the fastest horse in a one horse town."
He's the fastest horse in a one horse town He leaves them all in the dust On the fastest tracks around He gets that fire in his eyes And takes off like a gun And when the smoke clears Someone in the crowd hollers "Son, there goes the fastest horse in a one horse town."
