Tenessee Stud

歌詞

Well, there never was a horse like Tennessee Stud Along about 1825 I left Tennessee very much alive I never would've got through the Arkansas mud If I hadn't been a ridin' on the Tennessee Stud. I had some trouble with my sweetheart's pa One of her brothers was a bad outlaw I send her a letter by my Uncle Fudd And I rode away on the Tennessee Stud. The Tennesee Stud was long and lean The color of the sun and his eyes were green He had the nerve and he had the blood And there never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud. We drifted on down onto no man's land We crossed the river called the Rio Grande I raced my horse with a Spaniard's foal Till I got me a skin full of silver and gold. Me and a gambler we couldn't agree We got in a fight over Tennessee We jerked our guns, he fell with a thud And I got away on the Tennessee Stud. Well, I got just as lonesome as a man could be Dreamin' of my girl in Tennessee The Tennessee Stud's green eyes turned blue 'Cause he was a dreamin' of his sweetheart too. We loped right back across Arkansas I whoopped her brother and whopped her pa I found that girl with the golden hair She was a ridin' on the Tennessee Mare. The Tennesee Stud was long and lean The color of the sun and his eyes were green He had the nerve and he had the blood And there never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud. Stirrup to stirrup and side by side We crossed the mountains and the valleys wide We came to Big Muddy and we forded the flood And the Tennessee Mare and the Tennessee Stud. A pretty little babyy and the cabin floor A little horse colt playin' round the door I love the girl with the golden hair And the Tennessee Stud loves the Tennessee Mare. The Tennesee Stud was long and lean The color of the sun and his eyes were green He had the nerve and he had the blood And there never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud...
