Baby, saddle my pony, saddle up my black mare
|
Baby, saddle my pony, saddle up my black mare
|
I'm gonna find a rider, baby, in the world somewhere
|
|
"Hello central, the matter with your line?"
|
"Hello central, matter, Lord, with your line?"
|
"Come a storm last night an' tore the wire down"
|
|
Got a brand new Shetland, man, already trained
|
Brand new Shetland, baby, already trained
|
Just get in the saddle, tighten up on your reins
|
|
And a brownskin woman like somethin' fit to eat
|
Brownskin woman like somethin' fit to eat
|
But a jet black woman, don't put your hands on me
|
|
Took my baby, to meet the mornin' train
|
Took baby, meet that mornin' train
|
An' the blues come down, baby, like showers of rain
|
|
I got somethin' to tell you when I gets a chance
|
Somethin' to tell you when I get a chance
|
I don't wanna marry, just wanna be your man
|
