Some people wondered what Julia Roberts saw in Lyle Lovett. I never did. I always knew.
Now, sing along, won't you?
If I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat
If I were Roy Rogers
I'd sure enough be single
I couldn't bring myself to marrying old Dale
It'd just be me and trigger
We'd go riding through them movies
Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail
(chorus)
The mystery masked man was smart
He got himself a Tonto
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free
But Tonto he was smarter
And one day said kemo sabe
Kiss my ass I bought a boat
I'm going out to sea
(chorus)
And if I were like lightning
I wouldn't need no sneakers
I'd come and go wherever I would please
And I'd scare 'em by the shade tree
And I'd scare 'em by the light pole
But I would not scare my pony on my boat out on the sea
And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat

yeah, yeah, yeah - but what did HE see in HER?
Check out Lyle with Tammy Wynette: "Stand By Your Man". After the performance, Tammy defends the song, especially re Hillary Clinton's famous swipe at it.
Great song.
P.S.: I think that time will tell that "Pretty Woman" is actually a terrific actress and OK person despite that awful movie. In my fantasy, she thinks of it as an albatross.
She saw a romantic, clearly.
