(原詩)

Saw a Cadillac
For the first time yesterday
I'd always seen horses,
Buggies, bales of hay
Because progress here,
Don't move with modern times
There's nothing to steal
So, there's not a great deal of crime

It sure is hell living
In a one horse town
There's half a mile
Of Alabama mud bed ground
Nothing much doing of an afternoon
Unless you're sitting
In a rocking chair,
Just picking a tune

And they aren't too well acquainted
With the stars and stripes
But if you want to hear Susanna,
Then they'll pick all night
They'll pick all night

Because it's no dice living
In a one horse town
Laid back, as my old coon hound
And I just can't wait to get
Out of this one horse town
There's nothing to steal
Cause there's simply nothing
Much around

(interlude)

And they aren't too well acquainted
With the stars and stripes
But if you want to hear Susanna,
Then they'll pick all night
They'll pick all night

It sure is hell living
In a one horse town
There's half a mile
Of Alabama mud bed ground
And I just can't wait to get
Out of this one horse town
There's nothing to steal
Cause there's simply nothing
Much around
