Little Pony

Hurry up, dig a Little Pony I know

Say that so

I said hurry up, dig and Little Pony will blow

Ride, ride, ride

When he's blowin' pretty, what a musical treat

Say that so

Get him goin' steady, with a wonderful beat

Ride, ride, ride

Giddy up, giddy up, do me the ditty up

Giddy up, giddy up, go wake the city up

Giddy up, giddy up, once more I wanna repeat

(People pass word, he's the last word

That's the mass word)

They don't dig 'til he's big, then they wig

I said hurry up, dig a Little Pony I know

Say that so

I said hurry up, dig and Little Pony will blow

Ride, ride, ride

Want to say a lot about a Little Pony

Wanna celebrate the night the Pony booted up the big beat

And every time he got to cookin' everybody started lookin'

I can't stop tellin' what he was doin' to blow as though his heart was in it every minute

Singin' with a pretty kind of sound

Really givin' every pound

Never actin' like the greatest cat around

Everybody dug and he had 'em really drinkin'

Like they did a lot of swiggin' from a gallon jug

And then he cooled a while, sentimental style

Later on a little while he had 'em swingin'

Stompin' the floor. Little Pony went a-ridin'

Illustratin' what a horn is really for

Had 'em comin' back for more

When they added up the score: Joy Galore

Been down east, did up the west

Come to find this Little Pony's the best

Anywhere you go they gotta saddle Little Pony with a solid reputation

Down around the main street, over on the hipper beat

People think of Little Pony as a real king

And his playin' is a pleasure-givin' thing

Blowin' a horn and ridin' go together

And forever give the kind of thrill a lot of people never wanna end

But dig me tellin' about it, baby

And I'm merely goin' through

He can figure it out an' do it

Blow your horn, do up the sound

Sing your song, you're really puttin' it down

A little bit of listenin' with a passable ear

Will get an awful lot of messages anywhere

Ride Pony, ride! (That's me)

Be my wailin' guide (I'd like to be your wailin' guide)

Keep on singin', I dig you're bringin' the word

(Get a load, I'm really singin')

Go, Pony go! (I really will go)

Put me in the know (I'd like to put you in the know)

Dig me wiggin' that way you're diggin' I heard

Anybody ever made it out to the coast

They would tell you what I'm talkin' about -

Little Pony wailin' on the alto saxophone

Hollerin' "giddy up" and "gallop"

Ball, Pony, ball. (I really will ball)

Don't be slow at all

Don't be bashful, be like you're blowin' for me

(Take it from me. Gotta move along speedily)

Go, on go

Gotta get along, gotta do the coda. (Stay, blow)

It's really the end, you see. (Go on)

Well, thanks a lot, be really baby

I must quit the scene, if you know what I mean. (Be back?)

Hang around with me and you know it's a fact

You be for me, when you're hittin' the peak

Get a record that'll play a week

Could be good be-bop, could be
