Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Have you ever seen a one-trick pony in the field so happy and free?

If you've ever seen a one-trick pony then you've seen me

Have you ever seen a one-legged dog makin' his way down the street?

If you've ever seen a one-legged dog then you've seen me

[Verse 2]

Then you've seen me, I come and stand at every door

You've seen me, I always leave with less than I had before

Then you've seen me

Bet I can make you smile when the blood, it hits the floor

Tell me, friend, can you ask for anything more?

Tell me, can you ask for anything more?

[Verse 3]

Have you ever seen a scarecrow filled with nothin' but dust and weeds?

If you've ever seen that scarecrow then you've seen me

Have you ever seen a one-armed man punchin' at nothin' but breeze?

If you've ever seen the one-armed man then you've seen me

[Verse 4]

Then you've seen me, I come and stand at every door

Then you've seen me, I always leave with less than I had before

Then you've seen me

Bet I can make you smile when the blood, it hits the floor

Tell me, friend, can you ask for anything more?

Tell me, can you ask for anything more?

[Verse 5]

These things that have comforted me, I drive away

This place that is my home, I cannot stay

My only faith's in the broken bones and bruises I display

[Verse 6]

Have you ever seen a one-legged man tryna dance his way free?

If you've ever seen the one-legged man then you've seen me
