Lullaby Formica Sloppy Jane

Nine little horses sitting in my hand, oh
Told if I hold 'em, I could be a better man
One ran away 'cause he could not wait, oh
Now I've only got eight

Eight little horses in my jacket pocket, I
Wore it so long, it started to rot
One couldn't stand it, jumped down the shower drain
Now I've got less than eight

Seven little horses playin' by the trees
Cops and robbers, believe it's all make-believe
'Til one got sick, eating cakes made of sticks
Now I've only got six

Six little horses lying in the meadow
Not kidding, we saw the lion's tail
Ate one horse and it ate one more and
Now I've only got four

Four little horses, we're traveling the world
Three boy horses and one that's a girl
One jumped off a boat and was lost at sea, and
Now I've only got three

Three little horses, sitting in my room and I'm
Looking at them but I'm thinking about you
Gave you my favorite, the one painted blue and
Now I've only got two
