Pony Blues

Lyrics

So this one here, this old piece
 This is about the Pony Blues
 Where's my pony?
 Saddle my black mare
 Saddle up my black mare
 You know, I'm gonna find my baby
 Oh Lord, in this, this world somewhere
 Well, why don't you get off your horse?
 And come on, now let's just go
 Come on, pony
 Now let's just go
 As we set on down
 Where I'm from
 Oh make some coal
 You know, he's a travelin' horse
 And he don't deny his name
 Yeah
 He don't deny his name
 You know, the way he can travel
 Is a low-down, dirty shame
 Well, you know
 I hit him a lick
 And I spurred him 'round in his side
 I spurred him 'round, 'round in his side
 You know, a poor little girl asked me
 "Mister please, sir let me ride"
 Mhmm, he had four stomping feet
 And that long old curly mane
 Mhmm
 That long old curly mane
 You know, the way he could travel
 Was a low-down and dirty shame
 You know I take it all, I go to the race track
 So I can see my pony run, mhmm yeah
 See my, my pony run
 You know he wasn't the best in the one
 But he is a running son of a gun
 Oh, why don't you get up on that horse?
 And let's just, just leave this town
 Come on pony, now let's just go
 Can you sing again, honey
 I don't sing
 You, yeah, mhmm
 He's a travelin' horse
 And he don't deny his name
 He don't deny his name
 The way he can travel is a low-down, old, dirty shame
