My Horse Is A Lush

Verse 1

My mare has been replaced by a stallion that stays shaky

Six feet of chestnut hair

He cannot stand upright

Gulping down that apple jack behind the local feed store

Pre-Chorus

Bucking off the saddle

Spilling out the brew

Acting like a fool

Chorus

Oh my horse is a lush

He is thirsty for the hard stuff

Oh my horse is a lush

Running crooked through the cactus

Always looking for another round

Post-Chorus

Hiccup

Giddy-up

Fill the cup

Verse 2

Rode him into Reno for a bounty or a bottle

Whinnying at the barkeep

Nuzzling on the cider

Found him passed out cold underneath the cedar branches

Pre-Chorus

Tumbling through the tumbleweed

Lost his copper shoes

Singing equine blues

Chorus

Oh my horse is a lush

He is thirsty for the hard stuff

Oh my horse is a lush

Running crooked through the cactus

Always looking for another round

Post-Chorus

Hiccup

Giddy-up

Fill the cup

Bridge

Hay won't fix him

Oats won't fix him

Water won't fix him

Searching for a saloon that takes a silver buckle

Chorus

Oh my horse is a lush

He is thirsty for the hard stuff

Oh my horse is a lush

Running crooked through the cactus

Always looking for another round

Post-Chorus

Hiccup

Giddy-up

Fill the cup
