The pony, he felt a little bit shy,

When I went down in Louisiana,

I stayed a little while in Texarkana.

I was on my to Shreveport, Louisiana,

Then I stopped out in Caspiana.

When I was drivin' along in my car

And some of the people come around and says, "Will you allow me a little chance?

But every once in a while I feel a little bit shy
24
"˜Cause I was bitten by that blue-tailed fly.
25
(Chorus) (2x)
