Intro:Accordion Over | | A four-legged friend, a four-legged friend, He'll never Let You Down. He's honest and faithful right up to the end, (First Time Only) That wonderful one, two, three, four-legged friend. verse 1: A woman's like cactus and cactus can hurt, 'Cause she's just a tight-waisted winky-eyed flirt.

REPEAT Chorus Instrumental 1:Violin & Lead Over | | | | verse 2: A two-legged hombre is worthless as sand, He'll smile like a saint with a gun in his hand. He'll promise to stick by your side like a pal, But he'll also promise the same to your gal. REPEAT Chorus Instrumental 1:Accordion & Lead Over | | | | verse 3:Slow single strum chords, until last line Who carries your burden, who carries your load, On tumbleweed land or a long dusty road. Who asks you no questions, who tells you no lies, That four-legged friend with the two honest eyes. CODA: A four-legged friend, a four-legged friend, He'll never let you down. He's honest and faithful right up to the end, That wonderful four-legged friend. That wonderful one, two, three, four-legged friend. -- "Whoa, Trigger!" End Notes: 1.
