9. Let That Pony Run (Homeward Looking Angel, 1992)
“The way she sings can really reach down inside of someone and reach to their heart. She sure has a beautiful voice too. She inherited her dad’s talent and used her own talent to make herself stand out.”

It appeared on this album as the first single and performed well after release.”
