When I was a boy
I just had one joy
I only dreamed of a horse
A rockin' horse
Fast as can be
Daddy won't you buy that horse for me?
Gimme, gimme, gimme that horse
Then I go on and ride away
Gimme, gimme, gimme that horse
Then I go on and ride away
I was so young
And then he left home
He sailed on with his ship
He said: "Son
When I come ashore
I buy that horse you're asking for"
Gimme, gimme, gimme that horse
Then I go on and ride away
Gimme, gimme, gimme that horse
Then I go on and ride away
't Was only next day
I heard mamma say:
"Oh, my god" through the phone
I heard her cry
Now I know why
It was the day when he died
Gimme, gimme, gimme that horse
Then I go on and ride away
Gimme, gimme, gimme that horse
Then I go
Then you go on
Then you go on
And ride away (Ride away)
In the sky
Gimme, gimme, gimme that horse
Then I go on and ride away
Gimme, gimme, gimme that horse
Then I go on
Then you go on
And ride away
