(Rusty Harp)



I used to have money a home and a car

A horse and a dog and my old guitar

A pretty young wife just as sweet as could be

Now all I've got left is a family tree.



Fast women, slow horses and wine

Have made me an old man ahead of my time

My hair once black now with silver does shine

On account of fast women slow horses and wine.



I first started playing the horses for fun

The years rolled along but I never once won

I then started slipping around on my wife

And I'll regret it the rest of my life.



Fast women, slow horses and wine

Have made me an old man ahead of my time

My hair once black now with silver does shine

On account of fast women slow horses and wine.

I've lost all my money my wife took the car

My home horse and dog and my old guitar

Her new husband is a big hillbilly star

And the women all swoon when he plays my guitar.



Fast women, slow horses and wine

Have made me an old man ahead of my time

My hair once black now with silver does shine

On account of fast women slow horses and wine.



On account of fast women slow horses and wine...
