The Pony Man - Gordon Lightfoot
When it's midnight on the meadow
And the cats are in the shed

And the river tells a story
At the window by my bed

If you listen very closely
Be as quiet as you can

In the yard you'll hear him
It is the pony man

We're always there to greet him
When he tumbles into town

He leads a string of ponies
Some are white and some are brown

And they never seem to kick or bite
They only want to play

And they live on candy apples
Instead of oats and hay

And when we're all assembled
He gives a soft command

And we climb aboard our ponies
As in a row the stand

Then down the road we gallop
And across the fields we fly

And soon we all go sailing off
Into the midnight sky

And as we gaily rock along
Beside a ripplin' sea

There's Tom 'n Dick 'n Sally
And Mary Joe and me

And the pony man is leading
Cause he's travelled here before

And he gives a whoop and a holler
At Mr Moon's front door

And then we stop to rest a while
Where the soda river glides

Up to the slip comes a pirate ship
To take us for a ride

And the pony man's the captain
And the children are the crew

And we go in search of treasure
And laugh the whole night through

And when the hold is filled with gold
And the sails begin to strain

And the deck's piled high with apple pie
We head for port again

Then down the whirling starcase
So swift our ponies fly

And we're safely in our beds again
When the sunbeams kiss the sky

When it's midnight on the meadow
And the cats are in the shed

And the river tells a story
At the window by my bed

If you listen very closely
Be as quiet as you can

In the yard you'll hear him
It is the pony man
