Spotted Pony Lyrics

Love it is a very funny thing

It catches the young and old

Like a meal of boarding house hash

Many a man it has sold

It'll make you feel like a fresh water eel

It'll cause your head to swell

You'll lose your mind 'cause love is blind

It'll take all your money as well

When your stuck on a pretty little gal

You'll talk as gentle as a dove

He spends his money and he calls her honey

To show that he's solid on his love

When his money's all gone and his clothes in a soak

He'll find the old saying's true

A mole on the arm's worth two on the leg

What is a feller to do

When married folks have lots of cash

Their love is fond and strong

When they have to live on hash

Their love doesn't last very long

With a wife and seventeen half starved kids

I'll tell you it's no fun

When the butcher comes for to collect his bill

With a dog and a double barrel gun

When the rent is high and the kids all cry Because there's no grub to chaw

You'll call for your son and load up your gun

While you vaccinate your mother in law

With a wife and seventeen half starved kids

I'll tell you it's no fun

When the butcher comes for to collect his bill

With a dog and a double barrel gun
