Run Little Pony Lyrics - Streets Of Sin - Joe Ely

I went down to the races to watch my pony run 

Down to the races to watch my pony run 

Lookin' at the faces, lookin' for the fastest one 

I took my money, money I'd saved for rent 

I took my money, money I'd saved for rent 

Forgive me honey, I'll give it up for lent 

Run little pony, run like you're runnin' from sin 

Run little pony, run like the crazy wind 

Play your bugle, boy, play it fast and hard 

Play your bugle, boy, play it fast and hard 

Here come the ponies, come trottin' out in the yard 

The odds against me, they laid 'em seven to one 

Odds were against me, they laid 'em at seven to one 

Cold sweat like to drench me, when the starter man fired his gun 

Run little pony, run like you're runnin' from sin 

Run little pony, run like the crazy wind 

I yelled and I cheered and praised the lord above 

I yelled and I cheered and praised the lord above 

My Little Pony come in, one head out in front 

Out all night until the mornin' sun 

Out all night until the mornin' sun 

Buyin' all the drinks with the money I had won 

Run little pony, run like you're runnin' from sin 

Run little pony, run like the crazy wind 

Next thing I knew I was lookin' thru cold hard steel 

Next thing I knew I was lookin' thru cold hard steel 

Ain't got a brain in my head, guess I never will
