 We've got  a poor old horse,
 He's standing  at your door,
 And if  you'll only let  him in,
 He'll greet  you all I'm sure,
 He'll greet  you all  I'm sure.
 He'll greet  you all I'm sure,
 He'll greet  you all  I'm sure.
Now  that He's grown old
 And nature  doth decay,
 My master  frowns upon  him now,
 These words  I've heard him say,
 These words  I've heard  him say.
 These words  I've heard him say,
 These words  I've heard  him say.
Now  that He's grown old
 And scarcely  can he crawl,
 He's forced  to eat the coarsest grass,
 That grows  against the wall,
 That grows against  the wall.
 That grows  against the wall,
 It grows against  the wall.
 This poor  horse was once young,
 And in  his youthful prime,
 My master  used to ride  on him,
 He thought  him very fine,
 He thought  him very fine.
 He thought  him very fine,
 He thought  him very fine.
