I got me a stone pony : and I don't ride Shetland no more
You can find my stone pony : hooked to my rider's door
Vicksburg's my pony : Greenville is my grey mare
You can find my stone pony : down in Lula town somewhere
And I got me a stone pony : don't ride Shetland no more
And I can't feel welcome : rider nowhere I go
Vicksburg's on a high hill : and Natchez just below
And I can't feel welcome : rider nowhere I go
Well I didn't come here : steal nobody's brown
I just stopped by here : well to keep you from stealing mine
Hello Central : what's the matter with your line
Come a storm at night : and tore the wire down
