Baby saddle my pony : saddle up my black mare
I'm going to find a rider : baby in the world somewhere
Hello Central : what's the matter with your line
Come a storm last night : tore the wires down
Got a brand new Shetland : man already trained
Just get in the saddle : tighten up on your reins
And a brownskin woman : like something fit to eat
But a jet‑black woman : don't put your hand on me
Took my baby : to meet the morning train
And the blues come down baby : like showers of rain
I got something to tell you : when I gets a chance
I don't want to marry : just want to be your man
