Lyrics The Handsome Family

The Handsome Family

Tiny Tina

Last September at the state fair

Past the ferris wheel and bumper cars

The hypnotist, the jumping goats

Forgotten country music stars

There was a sign for Tiny Tina

From the wild's of Arizona

Drinks just a thimble of water

Eats just a handful of straw

Tiny Tina, the world's smallest horse

Just a dollar to go see her

Just a dollar to see that little horse

I rode the teacups, the tilt 'o whirl

Shot water guns at grinning clowns

I ate funnel cakes, chili dogs, fried beer

I saw the largest ear of corn

But as the fair lights shone at dusk

I stood there in that field of dirt

Thinking only of those little hooves

Trotting circles in the dark

Tiny Tina, the world's smallest horse

Why didn't I go see her?

Why didn't I go see that little horse?

Why didn't I go see that tiny horse?

Why didn't I go see that little horse?
