There seems to be some conflict in the lyrics.
I also see "Sure enough we had won", which is what I thought were the correct lyrics.
So, just whose horse won, anyway? Hers? His?
Oh, I'm sure that's a possibility. I googled the lyrics. I never heard the song straight so I wasn't sure ...
I think it was hers because she tore up the ticket just for a laugh and threw it in his face.
