Now that's not the horse you came in on
He does not answer to his name
This old town had a curse upon him laid
Or you have done some kind of trade
Yeah you have done some kind of trade
That rosie biddle heared you talkin' at the bar
Talkin' with the men who weigh the gold
Talkin' down the families of old
It's only evolution, they say
It's only evolution, babe
You're not the first cherry blossom to unfold
on a bitter winters day
The jaws of ambition may yet crush your pretty face
Leave another in your place
Leave another in your place
Cause that's not the horse you came in on
He does not answer to his name
This whole town had a curse upon him laid
Or you have done some kind of trade
Yeah, you have done some kind of trade
Yeah, you have done some kind of trade
