my father sold my pony for this boat - josh rister lyrics
(intro)
well, i ain’t here for sympathy
and i sure ain’t here to gloat
i’m just here to tell y’all a tale
about a pony and a boat
(verse 1)
my tragedy starts twelve years ago
on a humid summer eve
my dad came home a*hauling
that which i couldn’t believe
a 24*foot pontoon
sat in our driveway
he told me, “son, i’m sorry
i had to trade bubba away”
(verse 2)
well to me this news was shocking
it was more than i could stand
that my own beloved father
could betray me, out of hand
he knew bubba was mine
that wе loved riding, dawn to dusk
but even now, whеn i ask him
he just tells me to hush
(refrain)
i’d much rather be riding
but here i sit and float
‘cause when i was ten
my father sold my pony for this boat
(bridge)
and i’m mad
i loved that horse like the air i breath
i get sad
when i think about my trusty steed
my old equine buddy
i ain’t seen since i was ten
i just wanna’ feel his mane again
and ask him how he’s been
(outro)
so when i get my inheritance
i’m gonna’ sell that old pontoon
and find me a new pony
i’ll call him bubba 2
