Cassandra Wilson - Saddle Up My Pony lyrics
[Cassandra Wilson - Saddle Up My Pony lyrics]
Baby, saddle my pony, saddle up my black mare
I'm gonna find a rider, baby
In the world somewhere
"Hello central, the matter with your line?"
"Hello central, matter, Lord
With your line?"
"Come a storm last night an'
Tore the wire down"
Got a brand new Shetland, man
Already trained
Brand new Shetland, baby, already trained
Just get in the saddle
Tighten up on your reins
And a brownskin woman like
Somethin' fit to eat
Brownskin woman like somethin' fit to eat
But a jet black woman
Don't put your hands on me
Took my baby, to meet the mornin' train
Took baby, meet that mornin' train
An' the blues come down, baby
Like showers of rain
I got somethin' to tell you
When I gets a chance
Somethin' to tell you when I get a chance
I don't wanna marry, just wanna be your man
