The Lyrics
Tina Turner wrote the original about her home town. This parody is about mine. The last verse tells how the town got its name.
A church house school house
Right near Westinghouse
Where highway number fourteen
Merges with route seventeen
They call it Horseheads, oh Horseheads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
Junior High is called Sing Sing
See the gliders go soaring
You watch football on Friday
You go to church on Sunday
They call it Horseheads, oh Horseheads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
We're in the factory on weekdays
Go to the mall on Monday
Drive to the hills on Saturday
But go to church ev'ry Sunday
They call it Horseheads, oh Horseheads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
Got some whiskey for sale
You can buy some beer or ale
The Miracle Mile is
Parallel to the Erie rail
In Horseheads, oh Horseheads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
Little old town in the Southern Tier
It's called Elmira's suburban community
The settlers came, and then they dug
What they found down there, right in the ground
Were horse heads, yeah horse heads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
Right near Westinghouse
Where highway number fourteen
Merges with route seventeen
They call it Horseheads, oh Horseheads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
Junior High is called Sing Sing
See the gliders go soaring
You watch football on Friday
You go to church on Sunday
They call it Horseheads, oh Horseheads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
We're in the factory on weekdays
Go to the mall on Monday
Drive to the hills on Saturday
But go to church ev'ry Sunday
They call it Horseheads, oh Horseheads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
Got some whiskey for sale
You can buy some beer or ale
The Miracle Mile is
Parallel to the Erie rail
In Horseheads, oh Horseheads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
Little old town in the Southern Tier
It's called Elmira's suburban community
The settlers came, and then they dug
What they found down there, right in the ground
Were horse heads, yeah horse heads
Call it Horseheads, New York, Horseheads, New York
