Ponies

Somewhere out on the prairie

Is the greatest cowboy that's ever been

And when he lays his hands upon the ponies

They shudder with an understanding skin

And he says ponies

Now ponies don't you worry

I have not come to steal your fire away

I want to fly with you across the sunrise

Discover what begins each shining day

When the storm clouds in the west

Are quickly gathering

The ponies they run wild there

Before it rains

You'll see their sleek dark bodies

Brightly gleaming

You know the fire is flying through

Their brains

And he says ponies

Now ponies don't you worry

I have not come to steal your fire away

I want to fly with you across the sunrise

Discover what begins each shining day

And he says ponies

Now ponies don't you worry

I have not come to steal your fire away

I want to fly with you across the sunrise

Discover what begins each shining day

And he says ponies

Ponies don't you worry

I have not come to steal your fire away

I want to fly with you across the sunrise

Discover what begins each shining day

I want to fly
