Horse is a Horse (Mr. Ed) TV Show, A Lyrics
A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And no one can talk to a horse of course
That is, of course, unless the horse is the famous Mister Ed.
Go right to the source and ask the horse
He'll give you the answer that you'll endorse.
He's always on a steady course.
Talk to Mister Ed.
People yakkity-yak the street and waste your time of day
But Mr. Ed will never speak unless he has something to say
A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And this one'll talk 'til his voice is hoarse.
You never heard of a talking horse?
Well listen to this: "I'm Mister Ed."

Who was the voice of Mr. Ed ?
By Carole from San Antonio on 27 January 2009
I always thought it was quite amusing that a horse could talk. But he would always talk to his owner but never when his owner wanted him to. So he could never prove to anyone that Mr. Ed could talk. So does that mean that a talking horse was a figment of his(the owner) imagination, or was a talking horse a figment of OUR imagination?

the horse didnt talk, your tripping out
By Betsy from Urbana, Oh on 13 March 2009
I watched Mr. Ed faithfully. I was 7 when it first aired. I wanted a horse SO bad! I finally got a pony when I was 9. She was as sweet as could be but she couldn't talk like Mr. Ed.

So today I was watching Bones and it was funny because this guy was killed and his nickname (of sorts) was mister Ed and he pretended to be a horse. Dr. Hodgens brought this up to everyone but Bones didnt get it and it was funny. I guess more of a had to be there thing... oh well Hope you all enjoyed reading a somewhat throught provoking comment... =) Im 14 and Im already getting married, got engaged 2 days 22 hours and 36 minutes ago yayayaya Im happy just had to share that with the world. May good fortunes rule over you and peace live in your hearts

No one can talk to a horse, of course... Unless you give him Peanut Butter.
By Larry from Littleton Co on 6 June 2009
Donald Southerland made two or three movies with a "talking" horse. I'm sure the show, "Mr. Ed" was patterned after these movies, but I can't remember what the horses name was in the movies. Was it Mr. Ed???? I always thought the movies were better than the TV show.
By Larry from Littleton, Co on 6 June 2009
Amend last transmission, It wasn't Donald Southerland, it was Donald O'Conner.
By Rae from Australia on 25 June 2009
my partner and i grew up with this show. amoung other loving nik names he has for me "Mr Edd" is my favorite i would also LOVE to have the theme as my ring tone
By Eva from Mexia, Texas Usa on 21 July 2009
The Donald O'Conner movies were Francis the Talking Mule.
By Snoopy from Minnesota, United States on 3 August 2009
I'm a talking horse, and I have to say I fully endorse the concept. I mean, sure, in the mane I get strange looks, and I get alot of 'why the long face' wisecracks, but it sure beats sign language. So, next time you see a talking animal, give it some space, maybe a beer, and discusss the intricacies of the meaning of life, because animals are really into that!
By Bubblez from New Britain Usa on 19 August 2009
Snoopy is mad dum. Ne one who thinks they are a talking animal needs to go get help! Like Seriously. Sure i like the show to but animals cant talk. The show is simply created by putting peanut butter in the horses mouth so it looks like he is talking.
By Neale from Australia on 29 September 2009
I am a walking talking horse and am loved by all my workmates. They call me Super.....

bubbelz is the dumb one,of course animals can talk but to each other,humans just aren't smart enough to understand [us]
By Mr.ed Fan from Australia on 7 April 2010
I love this and I'm 11! I first saw it on 20 to 1 most catchy theme songs so I looked it up and now I love it! I sooo need to find a way to make the theme song my ringtone lol!
By Ralf from Germany on 2 July 2010
I cann still remember Mr. Ed, but not very clear...was about 6 years old, when I saw it on TV. I remember my fathers and mothers laughing one evening, when they saw Mr. Ed. Of course it was translated to German language. That was helpfull, because my parents didn´t learn English at school, they had a few french lesseons and my mother just a few english lessons during the terrible times of world war II. ok, today I´m able to see Mr. Ed again on DVD, and nothing of the charme of Mr. Ed and the story is lost! ...and sometimes...our children...meanwhile 18 and nearly 21 are laughing too by seeing Mr. Ed.! Best to all Mr. Ed´s fans! Ralf

By Karen from West Haven on 3 September 2010
I had the talking hand puppet that all the other kids wanted to play with, so being very young, I buried it in my yard and couldn't remember where. So no one got to play with it...not very bright
By Rickster from United States on 27 October 2010
I was somewhere age 3 to 8 watching Mr. Ed, and this song still cracks me up to sing it. I hope the author(s) did well by it, as it's really catchy. "Oh Wil ...lll ...lll..bur ... bur"
By Eric from United States on 13 April 2011
These lyrics are wrong! One example: it ends "I AM Mr. Ed!" not "I'm Mr. Ed".
By Eric from United States on 13 April 2011
The other error is "yak a streak" not "street".
By Swift from Israel on 28 May 2011
the source is satan and if you hear the song clearly it shows that some one is singing this to satan , check out the reason why his million recorded album was burned by a group of teenagers at the church? long live ISR
By John from United States on 31 May 2011
There's a "spokeshores" for the Yonkers Raceway and Casino who my wife and I consider one of Ed's scions. While we don't believe he has an official name, we've given him one: Ed Trotter.
By Maddy from United States on 19 October 2011
Thanks so much! I needed this for a PE final, don't ask.
By Todd from United States on 15 December 2011
It reminds me of my young, childhood. The tune came into my head after 40 years. looked it up on youtube, and waalla, a throwback to a more innoncent time in my life and in the country. Love the song.
