Lyrics
Pigtails and a face full of freckles Blue jeans worn out at the knees. It's a near perfect world for a ten year old girl. There's only one thing that she needs. Chorus: She dreams of a wild Appaloosa Fast as a wild prairie wind. Far beyond the horizon is where she would ride him. That pony would be her best friend. But dreamin's as far as she's been. Plastic Palominos and Buckskins Lined up on her windowsill. The dimestore is fine if you just want that kind But she wants a pony that's real. Chorus: She dreams of a wild Appaloosa Fast as a wild prairie wind. Far beyond the horizon is where she would ride him. That pony would be her best friend. But dreamin's as far as she's been. Bridge: There's no place for a horse in the city. Her mom tells her money is tight. When her birthday arrives she jumps on her new bike Pretends it's a stallion she rides. Now my jeans are still torn and tattered My girl looks like I did at ten. She tells me her dreams of a galloping steed. She reminds me of me way back when. Chorus: My girl dreams of a wild Appaloosa Fast as a wild prairie wind. Far beyond the horizon is where she will ride him I'll help her go further than me So she'll ride beyond all her dreams. She'll ride beyond all her dreams.
