[00:00:00] The Horse Told Me (09-09-49) - Nat King Cole (纳·京·高尔)

[00:00:16] In the big Handicap

[00:00:17] There's a positive snap

[00:00:19] Go bet on a horse

[00:00:20] Called 'The Sheik

[00:00:22] He'll walk off with the crown

[00:00:24] If he doesn't fall down

[00:00:25] And my boy that's what

[00:00:27] Happened last week

[00:00:28] Oh the Owner told

[00:00:30] Clarence the clocker

[00:00:32] The clocker told jockey McGee

[00:00:35] The jockey of course

[00:00:37] Passed it on to the horse

[00:00:38] And the horse told me

[00:00:46] Tell the age of the beast

[00:00:47] By his teeth and at least

[00:00:50] His teeth in the paddock looked great

[00:00:53] But this toothy old red had

[00:00:54] To sneeze in the stretch

[00:00:56] And he won by the loss of a plate

[00:00:58] Oh the Owner told Clarencee the clocker

[00:01:02] The clocker told jockey McGee

[00:01:05] The jockey of course

[00:01:07] Passed it on to the horse

[00:01:09] And the horse told me

[00:01:16] I once bet on a steed

[00:01:18] Of phenominal speed

[00:01:20] Boy she was fast as Aunt Nell

[00:01:23] But the judges they cried

[00:01:24] This one's disqualified

[00:01:26] There's a jet engine under her tail

[00:01:29] Oh the Owner told Clarence the clocker

[00:01:33] The clocker told jockey McGee

[00:01:36] The jockey of course

[00:01:37] Passed it on to the horse

[00:01:39] And the horse told me

[00:01:57] Tomorrow I'll bet just for kicks that I'll get

[00:01:59] What's gold is just ol' yeller lead

[00:02:03] I can lose with a grin if the horse don't come in

[00:02:06] I'll just blow a big hole in my head

[00:02:09] Oh the Owner told Clarence the clocker

[00:02:12] The clocker told jockey McGee

[00:02:16] The jockey of course

[00:02:17] Passed it on to the horse

[00:02:19] And the horse told me

[00:02:24] I had put down a deuce

[00:02:26] On a tip that got loose

[00:02:28] This horse in the paddock looked stunning

[00:02:30] I had overheard talk he could win in a walk

[00:02:34] And he could but the others were runnin

[00:02:36] Oh the Owner told Clarence the clocker

[00:02:40] The clocker told jockey McGee

[00:02:44] The jockey of course passed it on to the horse

[00:02:51] And the horse told me

[00:02:57] That's what he said
