Thread Name: Songs about the Pony Express?
Subject: RE: Any Songs about the Pony Express?
Guest, WE,
    That's the same record I referenced inn 2011! The song you cite had a chorus that went:
Sorry, sir, the mail is slow
The mail is oh so slow
And if you send it by the isthmus
It'll never be there by Christmas
Because the mail is oh so slow.
    It's how I learned the word "isthmus."
