lyrics

My Pony (Wright)

My pony, he’s been through it all
My pony, I pick him up when he falls
My pony, he carries a load on his back
For no reason he knows

My pony, he tells me no lies
My pony, well he’s seen me cry
My pony, he’s lived all his life in the dark
Never once seen the light

Wild boy, green pastures are waiting
You’ll soon leave this old mine behind
Someday, the sun will beat down on your back
It’s a life time away
From the dark of this place
By the light of a silvery dream

My pony, he shakes when he walks
My pony, he’s too old to work
My pony, he stares in the eyes of a man with a gun
Who would soon take his life

My pony, he dreamt he had wings
My pony, and all the beautiful things
My pony, like being lifted from out of this hole
The world his for the taking



Wild boy, green pastures are waiting
You’ll soon leave this old mine behind
Someday, the sun will beat down on your back
I will follow you there
Yes, I’ll follow you there
By the light of a silvery moon
