Ain’t No Horse Lyrics by NRBQ

NRBQ (1999)

0

Every day about sunset
There comes the king of roulette
He'll cash his great big stacks
Every time that he bets
But last night feeling extra fine
He put the whole mess down on red
It came up double-zero
His luck has just run dead
Ain't no sea can't be crossed
Ain't no ship that can't be lost
Ain't no horse that can't be rode
Ain't a man that can't be thrown
Well, Elvin said to Melvin
"you never gonna get that girl
She's too high class; she's beautiful;
She's a woman of the world,"
Then Melvin learned to dance
And that gal she gave him a wink
Then Melvin turned to Elvin
He said: "i tell you this is what i think:"
There's no sea can't be crossed
Ain't no ship that can't be lost
Ain't no horse that can't be rode
Ain't no man that can't be thrown
Oohh
Ohh
Ohh
Oooh...
I'll tell you all about Brenda
That girl, she could really paint
But all the critics told her
"where it is, you ain't"
She heard her work to the people
And it was like they couldn't even see 'em
But things can change and you know one day
They'll be in a big museum
There's no sea can't be crossed
Ain't no ship that can't be lost
Ain't no horse that can't be rode
Ain't no man that can't be thrown
You know a man can't live on bread alone
He's gotta have something to spin it on
I heard about a group with too much cash
They came up with something really rash
They had the money; they had the power
To build themselves a great big tower
You know, they never got to heaven
You know something, it went wrong
But check it out you can still hear em
Hear em babble on
Babble on
Babble babble babble
ON
There's no sea can't be crossed
Ain't no ship that can't be lost
Ain't no horse that can't be rode
Ain't no man that can't be thrown
