There’s a quiet country girl who works at the stud .
She’s gifted with a horse sense, it’s there in her blood .
She ploughs through the trackwork in the muck and the mud ,
There’s nothing she loves more that to hear those hooves thud .
She listens really close with the eyes of a hawk .
that’s the way she says she can hear the horses talk .
She has worked on the tracks from Kildare to Dundalk ,
tacking them up for show or going for a walk .
Some horses she would say are like babes in the woods .
she keeps the wolf away like little red riding hood .
because she’s a friend who defends all of their moods .
It’s her business to look after her equine goods .
From gripping reins to fixing a broken down fence ,
she has learned its takes much more than using horse sense
Caring for horses at the rich persons expense .
is the work of the girl with a horse common sense .
