Equus :
That's a terrific Castle --

Must have taken a 

long time to build 

you can stroke him if you like; he 

won't mind his name's Trojan 

easy there, Trojan, 

easy boy easy there --

Trojan 

Oh you can hardly reach from down

there you want to come up

come on --

Then no come on this side --
You always mount a horse 

on the left -- I'll give 

you a lift up ...

Okay 

I do nothing at all easy, easy, easy,

don't be frightened huh just hold

untight to his man and grip with your

knees... that's it -- come on n let's go 

Want to go faster....? All you have 

to do is say, "Come on,

Trojan -- bear me away!
Say it, there --

Bear me away --
I can't hear you, say it,
'Bear me away --', 

come on --
