Tom Russell - Throwin' Horseshoes At The Moon

Kishore Kumar Hits — Tom Russell - Throwin' Horseshoes At The Moon lyrics

Artist: Tom Russell

album: The Man From God Knows Where

My father was a gambler, he threw horseshoes at the moon
He won a million dollars, he lost a million, too
They repossessed the house, they towed that Cadillac
My daddy, he just smiled and said "One day I'll win it back"
My daddy bought that Cadillac off a Detroit motor line
Then he drove it through his home town, to prove he hit his prime
With hundred dollars bills in a Saint Chris money clip
And four kids starin' proudly from that big ol' sinkin' ship
Throwin' horseshoes at the moon
Boys, it's mighty risky odds, sometimes ya hook the milky way,
Or the outstretched hands of God
But mostly they just fall into a dark and dusty hole
And the sound of fallin' horseshoes, it pulls upon your soul
Throwin' horse shoes at the moon
My daddy was a gambler, but he had an honest heart
He never did complain, when the whole thing fell apart
He just swam that sea of alcohol till he hit the other side
How can ya be a loser if you never lose your pride?
Throwin' horse shoes at the moon
Boys, it's mighty risky odds, sometimes ya hook the milky way,
Or the outstretched hands of God
But mostly they just fall into a dark and dusty hole
And the sound of fallin' horseshoes, it pulls upon the soul
Throwin' horse shoes at the moon.
