Which Way Does That Old Pony Run

When I was a very young man

I was a cowboy

The best in the land

But then she settled me down

With a touch of her hand

Now I'm begging you mister

Tell me if you canWhich way does that old pony run

Which way does that old pony run

And how much is that saddle

And a straight shooting gun

Which way does that old pony runNow a young girl

She don't know when she's lying

But a woman

Great God she knows how it's done

So mama before I go

There's just one thing on my mind

Which way does that old pony runWhich way does that old pony run

Which way does that old pony run

And how much is that saddle

And a straight shooting gun

Which way does that old pony runSo this good life you know I must leave

Your new car

And your color tv

But what's riches to you

Just ain't riches to me

And if you're staying out here

Then I'm headed back eastWhich way does that old pony run

Which way does that old pony run

And how much is that saddle

And a straight shooting gun

Which way does that old pony run
