Pony Boy (song)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pony Boy was a popular song in the early 1900s.

Along with songs like "Cheyenne", it became a cliche, as its tune was frequently used in Western movies and cartoons. It works especially well when played on a "Honky tonk" piano.

The verse explains that the central character of the song has many female admirers. The chorus goes something like this:

Pony Boy, Pony Boy

Won't you be my Pony Boy

Don't say no

Here we go

Out across the plains

Marry me

Carry me

Right away with you

Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, whoa!

My Pony Boy
