about

As close to country as I'm going to get. For now.

lyrics

Wrong Horse, Baby (davis/chapman)

c:
you're backing the wrong horse, baby
you're betting on a fool's game you won't win
you're gonna get your heart broke, maybe
backing the wrong horse, baby, again

v1:
back when you were mine
didn't take a lot to make you smile
at least for awhile
just the two of us, some cheap ol' wine
and that's all we'd ever need
but you're changed, these days
left me to my ways
you're on the town with your latest craze
but I don't think you're satisfied

c:
you're backing the wrong horse, baby
you're betting on a fool's game you won't win
you're gonna get your heart broke, maybe
backing the wrong horse, baby, again

v2:
you set yourself up good
I hear you got yourself some brand-new friends
and too much money to spend
hope you treat yourself the way you should
you never seem to know when you've had enough
you never had a taste for the harder stuff
you've gotta know when they call your bluff
don't let them walk away with your heart

c:
you're backing the wrong horse, baby
you're betting on a fool's game you won't win
you're gonna get your heart broke, maybe
backing the wrong horse, baby, again

mid8:
and they don't know you like I know you're going to
gonna miss those simple times

c:
you're backing the wrong horse, baby
you're betting on a fool's game you won't win
you're gonna get your heart broke, maybe
backing the wrong horse, baby, again
