To the town of Ponyville there came a pony one fine day
Hardly spoke to folks around her, didn't have too much to say,
No one dared to ask her business, no one dared to block her tread
The stranger there among them had a long horn on her head,
Long horn on her head
It was early in the morning when she came into the town
She came trottin' from the south side, slowly lookin' all around
"She's a misfit loose and runnin'", all the other ponies said
"And she's here to do some business with the long horn on her head,
Long horn on her head"
In this town there lived an outlaw by the name of Sunset Red
Many guards had tried to take her and that many guards were dead
She was vicious and a killer, though a filly, twenty four
And the notches on her horn, they numbered one and nineteen more,
One and nineteen more
Now the stranger started talkin' made it plain to folks around
She was the student of the Princess; wouldn't be too long in town
She was here to take an outlaw back alive or maybe dead,
And her name was Twilight Sparkle; she was after Sunset Red,
After Sunset Red
Wasn't long before this story was relayed to Sunset Red
But the outlaw didn't worry, guards who'd tried before were dead
Twenty guards had tried to take her, twenty guards were killed instead,
"Twenty one will be this student with the long horn on her head!
Long horn on her head"
Now the morning passed so quickly; it was time for them to meet
It was twenty past eleven when they came out in the street
Folks were watchin' from their windows,
Every pony held their breath,
They knew that the young student was about to meet her death,
About to meet her death
There was forty feet between them
When they stopped to make their play
And the swiftness of the student is still talked about today
Sunset barely cast an aura but then Twilight struck her dead
For the student's aim was lethal, with the long horn on her head,
Long horn on her head
It was over in a moment and the ponies gathered 'round
There before them lay the body of the outlaw on the ground
Sunset might have went on livin'; chose to run away instead
But she failed to match the student with the long horn on her head
Long horn on her head
Long horn, long horn
Oh, she failed to match the student with the long horn on her head
Long horn on her head
