Tillis Pam - Let That Pony Run LYRICS

(Gretchen Peters)

Mary was married with children
Had the perfect suburban life
'Til her husband came clean with the help of Jim Beam
And he confessed all his sins one night
Said he'd fallen in love with a barmaid
Said she made him feel reckless and young
And when he was through, what else could she do
She just let that pony run

Chorus:
You do what you gotta do
You know what you know
You hang on 'til you can't hang on
And then you learn to let go
You get what you need sometimes
But when it's all said and done
You do what you gotta do
And then you let that pany run

Mary moved to West Virginia
After the shock wore off
She got a divorce and a chestnut horse
And a barn with an old hayloft
And sometimes she rides down by the river
Says it makes her feel restless and young
She closes her eyes and she holds on tight
And she lets that pony run

CHORUS
