Somewhere
out
on
the
prairie
Is
the
greatest
cowboy
that's
ever
been
And
when
he
lays
his
hands
upon
the
ponies
They
shudder
with
an
understanding
skin
And
he
says
ponies
Now
ponies
don't
you
worry
I
have
not
come
to
steal
your
fire
away
I
want
to
fly
with
you
across
the
sunrise
Discover
what
begins
each
shining
day
When
the
storm
clouds
in
the
west
Are
quickly
gathering
The
ponies
they
run
wild
there
Before
it
rains
You'll
see
their
sleek
dark
bodies
Brightly
gleaming
You
know
the
fire
is
flying
through
Their
brains
And
he
says
ponies
Now
ponies
don't
you
worry
I
have
not
come
to
steal
your
fire
away
I
want
to
fly
with
you
across
the
sunrise
Discover
what
begins
each
shining
day
And
he
says
ponies
Now
ponies
don't
you
worry
I
have
not
come
to
steal
your
fire
away
I
want
to
fly
with
you
across
the
sunrise
Discover
what
begins
each
shining
day
And
he
says
ponies
Ponies
don't
you
worry
I
have
not
come
to
steal
your
fire
away
I
want
to
fly
with
you
across
the
sunrise
Discover
what
begins
each
shining
day
I
want
to
fly
