We've got a poor old horse, |
|
He's standing at your door, |
|
And if you'll only let him in, |
|
He'll greet you all I'm sure, |
|
He'll greet you all I'm sure. |
|
He'll greet you all I'm sure, |
|
He'll greet you all I'm sure. |
|
Now that He's grown old |
|
And nature doth decay, |
|
My master frowns upon him now, |
|
These words I've heard him say, |
|
These words I've heard him say. |
|
These words I've heard him say, |
|
These words I've heard him say. |
|
Now that he's grown old |
|
And scarcely can he crawl, |
|
He's forced to eat the coarsest grass, |
|
That grows against the wall, |
|
That grows against the wall. |
|
That grows against the wall, |
|
It grows against the wall. |
|
This poor horse was once young, |
|
And in his youthful prime, |
|
My master used to ride on him, |
|
He thought him very fine, |
|
He thought him very fine. |
|
He thought him very fine, |
|
He thought him very fine. |
