When it comes to riding tall, I summon up the forces,
I sashay down into the stall and saddle up the horses!
With stirrup, bridle, well attached, a sight worth being seen,
We’ve taken from my worthy cache, a ride fit for a queen!
Horses, horses, a transport strong and bold.
Of course is, of course is well worth its weight in gold!

When I was young I was a son, had parents most endearing;
They had a thought so I was taught of horses to be fearing.
I liked the Clydesdale, appaloosa, Shire and Shetland pony,
But they thought e’en a quarter horse, was one-fourth horse too many!
Horse, horses, can’t have big or small,
Of course is, of course is can’t have none at all.

Then I tricked them. When found out, their tempers were on fire:
I told them I had been engaged to ‘prentice to a sire.
A sire of course is one male horse who wants to raise a fam;
It ended with success, you see, because he gave a dam!
Horses, horses, a lucrative endeavor.
Of course is I love horses and will honor them forever!
