Subject: Lyr Add: A MAN'S BEST FRIEND IS HIS HORSE
A MAN'S BEST FRIEND IS HIS HORSE
(written by: Joe Lubin, Al Vann & Wilton Moore)

Way out in Kansas City,
I met a gal so pretty,
She looked a lady in her gingham gown.
She said, "I love you honey",
But how she loved my money,
She took it all,
And blew right out of town.

CHORUS
Oh! A Man's Best Friend Is His Horse,
But of course, but of course.
Oh! A girl's nice to hold,
But they just want your gold.
So, A Man's Best Friend Is His Horse

The sheriff's daughter Rhoma,
As dry as Oklahoma,
Her eyes were crossed,
Her knees were bowed and frail
Her corsets you can't carry,
Unless you want to marry,
As quick as light'ning striking,
I hit the trail.

Oh! A Man's Best Friend Is His Horse,
But of course, but of course.
As the guns blazed away,
I heard the sheriff say
Oh! A Man's Best Friend Is His Horse.

A bar in old Montana,
A broken down piana,
The backroom where the boys
All play blackjack.
While dealing cards one night there,
I had a duelling fight there,
Because they found five aces
In my pack.

Oh! A Man's Best Friend Is His Horse,
But of course, but of course.
If you're quick on the draw,
Then you'll learn all the more,
That A Man's Best Friend Is His Horse.
Of course,
So A Man's Best Friend Is His Horse.
