Putty, New South Wales, Australia
A Plucky Aussie horseman
Rides the trail of the Pony Express
This year of 2011
Crossing the mighty US
Through mud and hail and tornadoes
Over plains and mountains high
He takes his US ponies
On a ride of do or die
He tames his plucky chargers
Through mishaps along the way
And together they conquer the challenge
And win to the others’ dismay
For horses understand courage
And rise to the rider’s request
Racing the wind as their master
The thrill is simply the best
So good on ya, Aussie Rider
Take your deserved accolade
Ride on with your grand US ponies
Fortune favors the brave
