Pam Tillis - Let That Pony Run lyrics
[Pam Tillis - Let That Pony Run lyrics]
Mary was married with children
Had the perfect suburban life
'til her husband came clean with
The help of Jim Beam
And confessed all his sins one night
Said he'd fallen in love with a barmaid
Said she made him feel reckless and young
And when he got through
What else could she do?
She just let that pony run
'Cause you do what you gotta do
And you know what you know
You hang on till you can't hang on
Then you learn to let go
You get what you want sometimes
But when it's all said and done
You do what you gotta do
Then you let that pony run
Now Mary moved to West Virginia
After the shock wore off
She got a divorce and a chestnut horse
And a barn with an old hayloft
Sometimes she rides down by the river
Said it makes her feel reckless and young
She just closes her eyes, and
She holds on tight
And she lets that pony run
'Cause you do what you gotta do
And you know what you know
You hang on till you can't hang on
Then you learn to let go
You get what you want sometimes
But when it's all said and done
You do what you gotta do
Then you let that pony run
Had the perfect suburban life
'til her husband came clean with
The help of Jim Beam
And confessed all his sins one night
Said he'd fallen in love with a barmaid
Said she made him feel reckless and young
And when he got through
What else could she do?
She just let that pony run
'Cause you do what you gotta do
And you know what you know
You hang on till you can't hang on
Then you learn to let go
You get what you want sometimes
But when it's all said and done
You do what you gotta do
Then you let that pony run
Now Mary moved to West Virginia
After the shock wore off
She got a divorce and a chestnut horse
And a barn with an old hayloft
Sometimes she rides down by the river
Said it makes her feel reckless and young
She just closes her eyes, and
She holds on tight
And she lets that pony run
'Cause you do what you gotta do
And you know what you know
You hang on till you can't hang on
Then you learn to let go
You get what you want sometimes
But when it's all said and done
You do what you gotta do
Then you let that pony run
