G

I got tired of New York City, of its sidewalks and its heat

G

So I got myself a great big horse and I rode him down the street

C G

And then I hollered, hi, ho, Silver and, get 'em up, Scout

D

But I suffered aggravation and a great humiliation

D G

So I finally said I'd let the story out

Chorus:

C D C D

You can't ride a big white horse into the front of Gatsby's door

G

You can't call out, hi, ho, Silver as you scoot across the floor

C G

Twenty big Italians had me bent down on my knees

D G

And I said, oh, ouch, help Lord, and Mama mia, please

Guitar solo

Well, he broke into a cantor down around ol' Times Square

And my cowboy boots and hat, I left them somewhere way back there

Then he stomped and reared and turned and bucked and took off to the South

And I slid through Gatsby's Restaurant with his tail stuck in my mouth.

Chorus

Now, down at Gatsby's Restaurant, there's a picture hanging there

Of a petrified Italian with escargot in his hair

And there's a big, white horse rug lying by the door

And I'm washing dishes in the back and sweepin' up the floor

Chorus
