Pony Songtext
von Tony Rice

I′ve seen it all, boys, I've been all over
Been everywhere in the whole wide world
I rode the high line with old Brown Derby
I danced real slow with Ida Jane
I was full of wonder when I left Murfreesboro
Now I′m full of hollow on Maxwell Street
And I hope my pony, I hope my pony
I hope my pony knows the way back home
I walked from Natchez to Herskovina
I built a fire by the side of the road
I worked for nothing in a Belzoni sawmill
I caught a blind out on the B & O


Talullah's friendly, Belzoni ain't so
A .44 will get you 99
And I hope my pony, I hope my pony
I hope my pony knows the way back home
I ran my race with barefaced Jake
Gave him a Manzanita cross
I′ve lived on nothing but dreams and train smoke
Somehow my watch and chain got lost
I wish I was home in Evelyn′s kitchen
With old Gyp curled around my feet
And I hope my pony, I hope my pony
I hope my pony knows the way back home
