The Motions - Nellie The Horse lyrics

rate me

Here she comes, her head is hanging

She still wears her hat

Though it seems as if she smiles

Her eyes are soaking wet

Nellie the horse is sad

She gets up at three o’clock

Always works till late

There’s no time for recreation

Grazing in the shade

Nellie the horse is sad

She is dreaming of green pastures

Endless fields and warmer nights

The friends she used to play with

Beneath a golden sun

Here she comes, her head is hanging

She still wears her hat

Though it seems as if she smiles

Her eyes are soaking wet

Nellie the horse is sad

She is dreaming of green pastures

Endless fields and warmer nights

The friends she used to play with

Beneath a golden sun

Then one day she had a fever

And was feeling bad

She walked into noisy traffic

It’s so very sad

Nellie the horse is dead
