Shetland Pony Blues

Lyrics for Shetland Pony Blues

Why don't you catch my pony? Now saddle up my black mare Oh my pony, saddle up my black mare You know I'm gonna find my baby Well in this world somewhere You know he's a trav'lin' hoss And he's two black bare He's a trav'lin' pony And a cow, he's two black bare You know he's gonna get no saddle He never had You know I take him by the reins And I led him around and around I said take him by the reins And I led him around and around You know he's the best in the world But he's the best of this kind You know he's a trav'lin' hoss And he don't deny his name He's a trav'lin' pony And he don't deny his name You know the way he can travel Is a low down, oh down and shame Why don't you come up here pony? Now come on, please let us go I said come up, get up now Please pony, now let us go Let's me saddle on down On Gulfport or Mexico You know the hoss that I'm riding He can foxtrot, he can lope and pace I said the pony I'm riding He can foxtrot, he can lope and pace You know a hoss with them in the gate You know I'm bound to win that race Mmm, he's a trav'lin' hoss And he don't deny his name He's a trav'lin' pony And he don't deny his name You know the way he can travel Is a low down, oh down and shame
