Drive-By Truckers - Little Pony and the Great Big Horse lyrics

Little pony and great big horse went
Out in a great big trot
Great big horse could trot real fast
Little pony he could not

Great big horse had run so fast for
So much of his great big life
Great big world he was runnin' in
Was getting smaller all the time

But, little pony still saw the great
Big world just like it was
Big and funny, lookin'
Lookin' through big horse's dust

When little pony caught great big horse he
Said "what is this I see?"
Great big horse said "I don't
Know, I'll slow down, you follow me"
Great big horse said "over there's a
Hill I used to climb"


He took little pony up to the top
And they looked down at the lights

Great big horse said "I ain't seen
These lights in so dang long

I'm sure glad that they're still here
I'd hate it if they's gone"

Little pony snorted and jumped strait
Up into the air
Great big horse said "settle down" even
Though he did not care

Climbin' all those hills made little
Pony's legs so strong
He could get to the top 'fore the great
Big horse knew what was going on

Great big horse he blinked his great
Big brown eyes once or twice
By the time he blinked and saw again
Little pony was out of sight

Little pony and great big horse went
Out in a great big trot
Great big horse laid down to rest
Little pony he did not
