Lacy J. Dalton Wild Pony Lullaby
[Verse 1]
It's a hand-me-down, hand-me-down handed to me
By my grandmother's grandma and her family
A couple of verses of sweet melody
Sing all our babies to sleep
[Chorus]
Singing la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
[Verse 2]
So when it's dreamtime, my darling, I'll turn off the lights
And you close your sleepy blue eyes
And like my mother before me I'll sing you to sleep
To the Wild Pony Lullaby
[Verse 3]
See 'em dancing and prancing and whirling around
On your eyelids behind you closed eyes
It's the Dreamworld you find when you follow the sound
Of the Wild Pony Lullaby
[Verse 4]
No one knows where it came from but I'd like to believe
That the angels were listening one dark winter's eve
To a cold westbound wagon and a small baby's cries
That they sent this ol' song to relieve
[Chorus]
Singing la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
[Outro]
It's a hand-me-down, hand-me-down handed to me
