Spin that pony Lyrics – Dave Stamey

Old Mike Hernandez was a buena vaquero
Rode some good horses Californio style
Watched him for hours and he showed me a little
Of the old California he knew for awhile

Started young horses in Bosal y Fiador
Unto the two rein the old Spanish spade
Brought them along with two hands that were gentle
Some fine reining horses as ever were made

And he’d spin that pony hanging onto the reata
He hung from a rafter in the Willow Creek barn
And I watched and I wondered man how could he do that
Then he’d change direction and spin him some more

Round and round, spinnin’ and round
Had them big spurs that came from Chihuahua
They never had ever raked hide nor hair
They had a nice jingle and when he rode by

They made pertty music that danced on the air
Lived in a shack with his wife named Juanita
She cooked on a wood stove tortillas and beans
After we’d eaten he said come I show

What the word handle on a good cowhorse means
And he’d spin that pony hanging onto the reata
He hung from a rafter in the Willow Creek barn
And I watched and I wondered man how could he do that

Then he’d change direction and spin him some more
Round and round, spinnin’ and round
He never did shout, he never did whisper
He had his own lingo that they understood

The touch of a knee or the lift of a rein
His horses all gave him the best that they could
In an old shed out behind his adobie
I helped him to hang up his bridles and gear

That’s where I discovered an old tarp that covered
Three trophy saddles won back many years
And he’d spin that pony hanging onto the reata
He hung from a rafter in the Willow Creek barn

And I watched and I wondered man how could he do that
Then he’d change direction and spin him some more
And he’d spin that pony hanging onto the reata
He hung from a rafter in the Willow Creek barn

And I watched and I wondered man how could he do that
Then he’d change direction and spin him some more
Round and round, spinnin’ and round
Round and round, spinnin’ and round

Round and round, spinnin’ and round
Round and round, spinnin’ and round
Round and round, spinnin’ and round
Round and round, spinnin’ and round
