Note on Added Lyrics
You will see lines in the lyrics that are in brackets //.
These lyrics are not sung, but are meant to be read..
There are more chapters to the story of Chalk Miller,
and these read (not sung) lyrics will play a part.

Chalk Miller was a man
He was a man he was a man he was a man
//He played the favorites and he did okay//
//He didn't fool with any longshot play//

Chalk Miller didn't mind
He didn't mind he didn't mind he didn't mind
//He liked to bet a couple bucks on a nag //
//Drink his winnings from a bottle in a bag//

//Dark horse//
//Coming up on the outside//
//Dark horse//
//At a hundred to one//
//Dark horse//
Nuthin short of a miracle
Run like a bastard
Dark horse run

Chalk Miller came home
He came home he came home he came home

Chalk Miller was alone
He was alone he was alone he was alone he was alone
//He knew the minute that he walked though the door//
//His one and only didn't live there any more//

Jimmy Fish was a man
Another man another man another man
//He likes to take a little action now and then//
//He likes to share his wise counsel with a friend//

//Dark horse//
//Coming up on the outside//
//Dark horse//
//At a hundred to one//
//Dark horse//
Nuthin short of a miracle
Run like a bastard
Dark horse run

Chalk miller throws down
He throws down he throws down he throws down
//What the hell it will all be over soon//
//I guess I might as well shoot for the moon//

//Gimme something that's a hundred to one//
//A little pony with a reason to run //
//Gimme something that could come home big//
//Gimme something gimme something//

//Dark horse//
//Coming up on the outside//
//Dark horse//
//At a hundred to one//
//Dark horse//
Nuthin short of a miracle
Run like a bastard
Dark horse run

//The kitchen table is a mess//
//A couple minutes til post-time is his guess//

//A cup of coffee and a half eaten roll//
//A couple saw-tail guppies in a bowl//

//A travel book called "Bangkok and beyond"//
//A Smith & Wesson that he pilfered from a blonde//

//He lights a camel and he makes a little cough//
//A sip of bourbon god help us and they're off…//
