Pony Love Song

 


Elsie watched her pony stand
The night that she was born
Held it in her tiny arms
Into the early morn

Innocent and takin deep
into my babys soul
Every night she'ld sing their song
To never feel alone

Elsie's pony love song
in the fading summer light
Out the back porch window
whispering good night

Lay down in the hay now
day will come again
Remember Im beside you
Always my best friend

Forever they're together
Racing to the breeze
Elsie and her pony
Out among the trees

Hat and boots she'd ride her
Partnered in their own parade
Love so pure and simple
In her life's great promenade

Elsie's pony love song
in the fading autumn light
Out the back porch window
whispering good night

Lay down in the hay now
day will come again
Remember Im beside you
Always my best friend

Winter she was taken
By a cough they couldnt cure
Pony was beside her
Just as long as she'd endure

Raging drunk on fury
She was taken for a sin
God would ease my sorrow
With her song upon the wind

Elsie's pony love song
in the fading winter light
Out the back porch window
whispering good night

Lay down in the hay now
day will come again
Remember Im beside you
Always my best friend
