A poor old man came riding by
And we say so, and we hope so
A poor old man came riding by
A poor old horse
Says I, "Old man, your horse will die."
And we say so, and we hope so
Says I, "Old man, your horse will die."
A poor old horse
And if he dies, then we'll tan his hide
And we say so, and we hope so
And if he don't, then we'll ride him again
A poor old horse
We'll use the hair of his tail to sew our sails
And we say so, and we hope so
We'll use the hair of his tail to sew our sails
A poor old horse
For a month a rotten life we've led
And we say so, and we hope so
While you've laid in your father's bed
A poor old horse
For one long month I rode him hard
And we say so, and we hope so
For one long month we rode him hard
A poor old horse
And we'll hoist him up to the main yardarm
And we say so, and we hope so
And we'll drop him down to the bottom of the sea
A poor old horse
And we'll toss him down with a long, long roll
And we say so, and we hope so
Where the sharks will have his body and the devil have his soul
A poor old horse
I thought I heard the old man say
And we say so, and we hope so
Just one more pull and then belay
A poor old horse
