Stone Pony Blues Lyrics

I got me a stone pony and I don't ride Shetland no more
I got me a stone pony, don't ride Shetland no more
You can find my stone pony hooked to my rider's door

Vicksburg's my pony, Greenville is my grey mare
Vicksburg's my pony, Greenville is my grey mare
You can find my stone pony down in Lula town somewhere

And I got me a stone pony, don't ride Shetland no more
And I got a stone pony, don't ride Shetland no more
And I can't feel welcome rider nowhere I go

Vicksburg's on a high hill and Natchez just below
Vicksburg's on a high hill, Natchez just below
And I can't feel welcome rider nowhere I go

Well, I didn't come here, steal nobody's brown
I didn't come here, steal nobody's brown
I just stopped by here, well, to keep you from stealing mine

Hello, Central, what's the matter with your line
Hello, Central, matter, now, with your line
Come a storm at night and tore the wire down
