Pinto Pony
I had me a pinto pony once
And a beautiful sight was he
And I gave him to a pretty little gal
For to keep her company

Well, all around the old corral
He chased that pretty little lass
He would stick his nostrils up her dress
And snuff around her

As for you, you naughty little horse
Don't make my temper rise
Only one man in the whole wide world
Will sleep between my

Thank the gentlemen for the wine
I'll drink it with my supper
Damn the man who loves a girl
But ain't got the guts to

Upper, lower, that's my berth
Check it right off your list
I'm going into the parlor car
And try to take a

Pistol belt around my hip
Around the town I'll frolic
Saddle up the strawberry roan
But don't strap it on his
Bawl, bawl, he's only scared
He heard the elephant yell
Don't go near that elephant's cage
Or he'll smash you all to

"Help! Help!" the sailor cried
As through the waves he swam
"It's sink or swim" the Mate replied
"Cause I don't give a"

Dam the river, dam the brook
Sitting by the shore
Pretty little gal at my head and feet
And my arms around her

Hold on there, you pretty little miss
And get right off my lap
I can tell by the scars on your pretty little arse
That you got you a dose of

Clap hands, the song is done
You thought it would never end
If you don't approve of it
Well, I'll start it over again

Yes, I had me a pinto pony once
And a beautiful sight was he
But I gave him to a pretty little gal
For to keep her company
