Charlie Patton - Founder of the Delta Blues

Stone Pony Blues

I got me a stone pony and I don't ride Shetlands no more
I got me a stone pony, don't ride Shetlands 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, Lord, 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 Shetlands no more
Got a stone pony, don't ride Shetlands 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
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
