the canadian (p'tit cheval de fer) - marie-lynn hammond lyrics

Loading...

well he’s not too big and he’s not too tall
overall he’s kinda small
next to your clydes or your fancy breeds
you mightn’t give him a second look
heavy mane and tail, broad round back
not too flashy, usually brown or black
but here’s a case where you shouldn’t be goin’
by the cover to judge the book

now my grandpapa he used to say
when he was a young man in gaspé
he had a mare like that, a canadian they called rosette
ploughing fields, hauling rocks or wood
that little horse was better than good
you could ride or drive her 50 miles and she’d never even break a sweat

and grandpapa made up a song that he’d sing to that little mare all day long

chorus:
mon p’tit canadien
mon p’tit cheval de fer

a’ec sa tête en l’air
pis sa belle crinière
y’est pas ben grand
y’est pas ben gros
mais y’est fort comme le diable
pis ben plus beau!
diddle aï don, marche donc giddy*up
mon p’tit canadien
