•  MP3 Recording of I Had a Little Pony, - His Name Was Dapple Grey

Notes

Here's another version:

I had a little pony
They called it Dapple Gray,
I lent it to a lady
To ride a mile away.
She whipped it, she slashed it,
She drove it through the mire.
I will not lend my pony more,
For all the ladies' hire.
