[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] I been rambling here I been rambling there Traverse 'cross Equestria Ramble everywhere Rambled since my donkey heart got broken in two Matilda, I ramble for you [Chorus] You know I ain't no stranger to the Cranky Doodle Blues But I haven't met defeat Though I've walked each country mile And every city street I've walked everywhere Where there is sun and moon above I ramble for Matilda My love [Verse 2] I trekked to Appleoosa Through the dust and dirt and hay Was blinded in Manehattan By the lights of old Broadway I've trudged through every season Straight through ice and heat and dew Matilda, I do it for you [Chorus] You know I ain't no stranger to the Cranky Doodle Blues But I haven't met defeat Though I've walked each country mile And every city street One thing that makes me cranky And gets my whole life down Are these nights without Matilda That make me frown Yeah, make me frown [Harmonica solo] [Spoken] I feel a frown coming on [Instrumental solos] [Verse 3] No Matilda here No Matilda there I've rambled 'cross Equestria And she ain't nowhere I'll ramble into Ponyville Towing memories of when When I thought I'd see Matilda again [Outro] (Thought I'd see Matilda again)
