Fastest Horse in Town

I been wasting all my best days

I invested all my worst ways

I've been thinking about all the things

I should have never left behind

Oughta be watching the children playing

In the yard I never see I should be mowing today

Instead, I'm searching for ways to say

All the words I can't find

Everybody's trying to be the next someone

But look at me, I'm trying to be the first something

Back when dollars made sense

Had to keep the squirrels off the fence

And shoes are coming loose on the fastest horse in town

But that old horse just keeps on running

If he falls, they'll put him down

Them men keeping him out on the track

Running him ragged just to pile up the stacks

Make it so he's all spent by the time he gets back

Everybody's trying to be the next someone

Look at me, I'm trying to be the first something

Look at me, I'm trying to be the first something

Everybody's trying to be the next someone

Look at me, I'm trying to be the first something

Look at me, I'm trying to be the first something

(Well, you know what I want?

We need, we need a gift card for

Are y'all listening to me? This is what I want

I want a gift card from God

He can keep it all

I want a gift card from God)
