Along about eighteen twenty-five, | |
I left Tennessee very much alive. | |
I never would have 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, | |
And one of her brothers was a bad outlaw. | |
I sent her a letter by my Uncle Bud, | |
And I rode away on the Tennessee Stud. | |
The Tennessee 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. | |
One day I was riding in a beautiful land | |
I run smack into an Indian band | |
They jumped their nags with a whoop and a yell | |
And away we rode like a bat out of hell. | |
I circled their camp for a time or two, | |
Just to show what a Tennessee horse can do. | |
The redskin boys couldn't get my blood, | |
'Cause I was a-riding on the Tennessee Stud. | |
We drifted on down into no man's land, | |
We crossed that river called the Rio Grande. | |
I raced my horse with the Spaniard's foal | |
'Til 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, and he fell with a thud, | |
And I got away on the Tennessee Stud. | |
I got just as lonesome as a man can be, | |
Dreamin' of my girl in Tennessee. | |
The Tennessee Stud's green eyes turned blue | |
'Cause he was a-dreamin' of a sweetheart, too, | |
We loped right back across Arkansas; | |
I whupped her brother and I whupped her pa. | |
I found that girl with the golden hair, | |
And she was a-riding on the Tennessee Mare. | |
Stirrup to stirrup and side by side, | |
We crossed the mountains and the valleys wide. | |
We came to Big Muddy, then we forded the flood | |
On the Tennessee Mare and the Tennessee Stud. | |
A pretty little baby on the cabin floor, | |
A little horse colt playing 'round the door, | |
I love that girl with the golden hair, | |
And the Tennessee Stud loves the Tennessee Mare. |
Along about eighteen twentyfive, | |
I left Tennessee very much alive. | |
I never would have got through the Arkansas mud | |
If I hadn t been aridin on the Tennessee Stud. | |
I had some trouble with my sweetheart s pa, | |
And one of her brothers was a bad outlaw. | |
