Once I had a silver stallion
You should have seen him run
He was one horse in a million
Sold him for a song, that was the one
That was the one
But he could run,
that was the one
Once I had a big block Chevy Quarter mile,
twelve point one
Rode the local girls,
old crazed cruisin' all night long
That was the one,
that was the one
He could turn it on,
that was the one
I guess life is always slippin' right on through my hands
But now I'm just a-wishin' I could ride that horse again
That was the one,
that was the one
But he could run,
that was the one
Once I held a perfect woman Loved me like a movie star
Sometimes I still dream about her Light in the dark,
that was the one
That was the one,
I should have held on That was the one
I guess life is always slippin' right on through my hands
But now I'm just a-wishin' I could ride that horse again
That was the one,
that was the one
Second to none,
that was the one
That was the one,
that was the one
Should have held on,
that was the one
That was the one,
that was the one I think we're gone,
that was the one
