If it (G major) s ridin' wild ponies

Oh that straw (G major) berry (C major) roan
(F major) oh that strawberry (C major) roan
He (F major) says he's a cayuse that's

The guy (F major) that gets on him is
(C major) bound to get throwed
Throwed (G major) of that strawberry (C major) roan

Little pin ears and (G major) they're split at the tip a
