(Blame It On The) Pony Express - The Pioneers

It’s been a while since you left St Joe, I still tell myself, you gotta feel

the same way.

I’ll get a letter very soon I know, so I pass today, and ask them at the relay,

and they say, hey …

There’s nothin' I can do if it don’t get through, blame it on the pony express.

There’s nothin' I can say if it goes astray, blame it on the pony express.

I only pray that the long delay, doesn’t mean that I lost the heart I had a

claim on.

But if I stay on a homeward trail, I know there’s gonna be a letter with my

name on.

How can I go on, with you gone?

There’s nothin' I can do if it don’t get through, blame it on the pony express.

There’s nothin' I can say if it goes astray, blame it on the pony express.

Honey if you’re lonely, blame it on the pony express.

Cherokee, Pawnee, Navajo Indian …

(It's such along way from St Joe to Sacramento.)

I’m tryin' not to worry, my heart is in a hurry, so ride just as fast as you

can.

There’s nothin' I can do if it don’t get through, blame it on the pony express.

There’s nothin' I can say if it goes astray, blame it on the pony express.

I only hope and pray, that this lonely day, doesn’t mean I have to wait another

lonely day.

There’s nothin' I can do if it don’t get through, blame it on the pony express.

There’s nothin' I can say if it goes astray, blame it on the pony express.
