I got me a stone pony, don't ride Shetland no more

You can find my stone pony down in Lula town somewhere
And I got me a stone pony, don't ride Shetland no more

And I can't feel welcome rider nowhere I go
Vicksburg's on a high hill and Natchez just below
Vicksburg's on a high hill, Natchez just below
And I can't feel welcome rider nowhere I go
Well, I didn't come here, steal nobody's brown
I didn't come here, steal nobody's brown
I just stopped by here, well, to keep you from stealing mine
Hello, Central, what's the matter with your line
Hello, Central, matter, now, with your line
Come a storm at night and tore the wire down
