Michael Martin Murphey - Ponies lyrics

Somewhere out on the prairie Is the greatest cowboy that's ever been When he lays his hands upon the ponies They shutter with that understanding skin 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 And discover what begins each shining day When the storm clouds in the west are quickly gathering Ponies they run wildly before it rains You'll see their sleek dark bodies brightly gleamin' You'll know the fire's flying through their brains 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 And discover what begins each shining day 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 And discover what begins each shining day He says ponies now ponies don't you worry I have not come to steal your fire away (fade out)
