I've seen it all, boys -- I've been all over. Been everywhere in the whole wide world. I rode the high line with ol' Blind Darby. I danced real slow with Ida Jane. I was full of wonder when I left Murfreesboro -- Now I am full of hollow on Maxwell street. And I hope my Pony I hope my Pony I hope my Pony Knows the way back home. I walked from Nachez to Hushpukena -- I built a fire by the side of the road. I worked for nothing in a Belzoni saw mill. I caught a blind out on the B and O Talullah's friendly Belzoni ain't so A 44'll get you 99. And I hope my Pony I hope my Pony I hope my Pony Knows the way back home. I run my race with burnt face Jake -- Gave him a Manzanita cross. I lived on nothing but dreams and train smoke Somehow my watch and chain got lost. I wish I was home in Evelyn's kitchen With old Gyp curled around my feet. And I hope my Pony I hope my Pony I hope my Pony Knows the way back home.
