Horses and Women(Remastered 2015) (Remaster) - Frankie laine

　　Horses and women

　　All my life I've tried to win with

　　Horses and women

　　They sure keep me in a spin

　　My poor head is swimmin'

　　Tryin' to solve the mystery of

　　Horses and women

　　They'll be the death of me

　　Now horses all wear harnesses

　　But women wear them too

　　A woman's harness rarely shows to

　　Any man who's lucky with them

　　They're a dream come true

　　But you must have sugar to get close to

　　Those tantalizing women and horses

　　Though their eyes are soft and warm

　　They love double crosses

　　You can't judge them by their form

　　They'll melt your resistance

　　Then when you have spent your all

　　They won't go the distance

　　You're riding for a fall

　　You train them and clock them

　　Even pay their stable fees

　　You groom them and walk them

　　Let them live a life of ease

　　You pet them stroke them

　　Shove the carrots in their face

　　When some other Joe comes

　　And takes their maiden grace

　　I asked an old philosopher

　　Who really knows the score

　　He said my boy they are the most high

　　You must however say don't place your bets too early for

　　The odds keep on changing up to post time

　　That's how it goes with horses and women

　　They'll both take you for a ride

　　They'll give you a trimmin'

　　Then go struttin' high and wide

　　I've tried every system to get in that winner's circle

　　Cussed them and kissed them

　　But nothing seems to work

　　If I was wise I'd just forget them both and take it easy

　　Stick to golf and poker or backgammon or parcheesi

　　But I know while I've a long shot left I'll stay

　　With horses and women all the way
