Just Me And These Ponies (For Christmas This Year) |
| I road up in those hills |
| Like when we all used to go |
| Cut a tree like the one |
| That we used to alone |
| Behind the old sorrel mare |
| I drag it down off the slopes |
| Trimmed it up in the corner |
| With tinsel and hoped |
| I ain’t heard from my son |
| And I won’t I expect |
| The other’s flight |
| It was cancelled |
| At least that’s what he said |
| My daughter’s takin' the kids again |
| To Maui this year |
| I guess don’t blame em' |
| It’s pretty cold round here |
| :Thank Christ for these horses |
| Or I’d be here at home |
| Eighty years old spending Christmas alone |
| A blizzard is howling |
| And night it grows near |
| It’s just me and the ponies |
| For Christmas this year |
| It’s bitterly cold with three feet of snow |
| And this wouldn’t be home |
| If the wind didn’t blow |
| Can’t get out of the yard |
| I’m snowed in with the drifts |
| And no one is coming to open these gates |
| If I were my father I’d hitch up a team |
| Take the sleigh to the neighbour’s for brandy and cream |
| But that world is gone |
| It’s all dissappeared |
| It’s just me and the ponies |
| For Christmas this year |
| This old barn is still standing |
| Not much longer I think |
| I can see the north star |
| Through the holes in the chink |
| Tonight it’s oats for my pals |
| And me a bottle of cheer |
| It’s just me and the ponies |
| For Christmas this year |
