There's a moon o'er the prairie
Shining so brightly
A moon o'er the prairie
So big and so bright
And I'd pay that old moon to shine
Straight through the dawn
Because first light tomorrow
My love will be gone

Pony girl, ride, ride away
I knew you'd break my heart someday
Some folks get the call to go
Some folks, they're bound to stay
Oh, oh, ride, ride, ride away
Ride, ride, ride away
Ride, ride, ride away
Ride, ride, ride away

(instrumental break)

Pony girl, ride, ride away
I knew you'd break my heart someday
Some folks get the call to go
Some folks, they're bound to stay
Oh, oh, ride, ride away
Ride, ride, ride away
Ride, ride, away
Ride, ride, ride away
