Dusty little boots kickin' at the dawn
First thing every mornin', soon as sleep was gone
Past the creaky screen door, down the gravel lane
To the old split-rail fence and the callin' of my name
In a soft whinny waitin', coat the shade of rust
With a crooked white blaze and a heart full of trust
My pony, my pony!
Oh, my pony, pony! Best friend I ever knew!
Carried all my secrets, every dream come true!
We'd race the summer wind down by Miller's Creek
Or just amble lazy, hear the old barn creak
Oh, my pony, pony! Faithful, strong, and true!
Nothin' in this whole wide world was better than me and you!
Apple cores for treats right from my own hand
Brushin' down that soft coat, helpin' her to stand
Tiny braids in her mane, tied with baling twine
She'd stand so patient, knowin' she was mine
Through the clover meadows, past the old cow shed
Every hoofbeat poundin' rhythm in my head
My pony, my pony!
Oh, my pony, pony! Best friend I ever knew!
Carried all my secrets, every dream come true!
We'd race the summer wind down by Miller's Creek
Or just amble lazy, hear the old barn creak
Oh, my pony, pony! Faithful, strong, and true!
Nothin' in this whole wide world was better than me and you!
Years have rolled on by like tumbleweeds at play
But the smell of sweet hay on a golden summer day
Or the sound of a nicker driftin' soft and low
Brings me right back to her, from a long time ago
She taught me 'bout patience, kindness, bein' brave...
Oh, my pony, pony! Best friend I ever knew!
Carried all my secrets, every dream come true!
We raced the summer wind, felt the whole world free!
That little horse meant everything to me!
Oh, my pony, pony! Faithful, strong, and true!
Nothin' in this whole wide world was better than me and you!
No, nothin' better! Just me and you!
My PONY!
