Tennessee Stud - Ramblin' Jack Elliott[00:00:04]
Along about eighteen twenty five[00:00:05]
I left Tennessee very much alive[00:00:08]
I never would have forded the Arkansas mud[00:00:12]
If I hadn't been a riding on the Tennessee Stud[00:00:14]
I had a little trouble with my sweetheart's pa[00:00:21]
And one of her brothers was a bad outlaw[00:00:24]
I sent her a letter by my Uncle Fudd[00:00:28]
Then I rode away on the Tennessee Stud[00:00:31]
The Tennessee stud was long and lean mean[00:00:37]
The color of the sun and his eyes were green[00:00:40]
He had the nerve and he had the blood[00:00:44]
And there never was a horse like the Tennessee stud[00:00:46]
One day I was riding in a beautiful land[00:01:09]
I run smack into an Indian band[00:01:11]
They jumped their nags with a whoop and a yell[00:01:16]
And away we rode like a bat out of Hell[00:01:18]
I circled their camp for a time or two[00:01:22]
Just to show what a Tennessee horse can do[00:01:24]
The redskin boys couldn't get my blood[00:01:29]
'Cause I was a-riding on the Tennessee Stud[00:01:31]
The Tennessee stud was long and lean mean[00:01:38]
The color of the sun and his eyes were green[00:01:40]
He had the nerve and he had the blood[00:01:45]
And there never was a horse[00:01:47]
Like the Tennessee stud[00:01:48]
We drifted on down into no man's land[00:02:07]
We crossed the river called the Rio Grande[00:02:09]
I raced my horse with a Spaniard's foal[00:02:14]
Til I got me a skin full of silver and gold[00:02:16]
Me and a gambler we couldn't agree[00:02:23]
We got in a fight over Tennessee[00:02:24]
We jerked our guns and he fell with a thud[00:02:29]
And I got away on the Tennessee Stud[00:02:32]
Well I got just as lonesome as a man can be[00:02:41]
Dreaming of my girl in Tennessee[00:02:43]
The Tennessee Stud's green eyes turned blue[00:02:47]
Cause he was a dreaming of his sweetheart too[00:02:49]
The Tennessee stud was long and lean mean[00:02:59]
The color of the sun and his eyes were green[00:03:01]
He had the nerve and he had the blood[00:03:05]
And there never was a horse[00:03:07]
Like the Tennessee stud[00:03:08]
We loped right back across Arkansas[00:03:27]
I whupped her brother and I whupped her pa[00:03:29]
When I found that girl with the golden hair[00:03:34]
And she was a riding on the Tennessee Mare[00:03:36]
Stirrup to stirrup and side by side[00:03:43]
We crossed the mountains and the valleys wide[00:03:45]
We came to Big Muddy then forded the flo[00:03:52]
Tennessee mare tennessee stud[00:03:54]
Pretty little baby on the cabin floor[00:04:01]
And a little horse colt playing around the door[00:04:03]
I love the girl with the golden hair[00:04:08]
And the Tennessee Stud loves the Tennessee Mare[00:04:09]
The Tennessee stud was long and lean mean[00:04:23]
The color of the sun and his eyes were green[00:04:25]
He had the nerve and he had the blood[00:04:30]
And there never was a horse like the Tennessee stud[00:04:33]
