The Ozark Mountain Daredevils
Horse Trader
(GUITAR INTRO)
Well, please please respond, I'll take offers from y'all
And I'm bound to get my money back some day
Lookin' for a bargain, you just call, take you a little or take it all
But it's good that I don't keep records anyway
Don't go looking for anything new, find ya a used one that will do
Things get better after several years of age
Don't you never buy new and pay on time, when you can get a used one for a dime
Well a book's no good, if someone turned the page
Kick it on the tire, now brother, slap it on the hood
Wouldn't tell you nothin' if it weren't no good
Look him in the teeth, now brother, look him in the eye
I guarantee that he'll never die
And it's your good luck to know an old horse trader like me
(ELECTRIC GUITAR SLIDE SOLO)
Don't go lookin' for anyone new, someone used will surely do
Someone faded from a lonely trip for two
Someone ripped me in the past, someone driven' hard and fast
It's your choice now baby, don't leave for someone new
Don't you do it
Kick it on the tire, now brother, slap it on the hood
Wouldn't tell you nothin' if it weren't no good
Look him in the teeth, now brother, look him in the eye
I guarantee that he'll never die
And it's your good luck to know an old horse trader like me
Yes, it's your good luck to know an old horse trader like me
Yes it is
Don't you know it is?
Yes, it is
