Lyrics
- Way out west, in a nest from the rest
Dwelt the bestest little Bronco Boy
He could ride, he could glide
O’er the prairies like an arrow
Every maid in the glade was afraid
He would trade his little heart away
So each little peach made a nice little speech
Of love to him:

Don’t say no, here we go, off across the plains
Marry me, carry me, right away with you
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, Whoa! My Pony Boy
- Till one day, out that way, so they say
Came to stay a Fluffy Ruffle girl
She made eyes, she surprised
And he found his heart was lassoed
When he thought he was caught, how he fought
But she taught this pony boy to love
But he balked when she talked of a trip to New York
So she sang to him:
