Charley Patton - Stone Pony Blues lyrics
[Charley Patton - Stone Pony Blues lyrics]
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
