Kasey Chambers - Pony



When I grow up I want a pony
I'm gonna ride her from dust 'til dawn
I'm gonna brush her mane and feed her sugar cane
And keep her in safe from the storm

If I had a pony
I wonder could I be your girl?

When I grow up I want a baby
I'm gonna name it after Ralph Stanley
And I sure won't mind if it cries all night
Just as long as it looks like me

If I had a baby
I wonder could I be your girl?

Yodelay he yodeloh oh
You rock my world
Yodelay he yodeloh oh
When I grow up I wanna be your girl

When I grow up I want a cowboy
With dust all over his jeans
With a horse named Jack and a ten gallon hat
He is nice but he looks so mean

If you were a cowboy
I wonder could I be your girl?

Yodelay he yodeloh oh
You rock my world
Yodelay he yodeloh oh
When I grow up I wanna be your girl aah haa

When I grow up I'll be a lady
All my rings will be made of gold
I'll put flowers in my room, I'll wear perfume
I won't listen to rock 'n' roll

If I was a lady
I wonder could I be your girl?

Yodelay he yodeloh oh
You rock my world
Yodelay he yodeloh oh
Yodelay he
When I grow up I wanna be your
When I grow up I wanna be your
When I grow up I wanna be your girl

When I grow up I wanna a pony
When I grow up I wanna a baby
When I grow up I wanna a cowboy
When I grow up I'll be your lady
