Tennessee Stud - Doc Watson[00:00:00]
Written by:Jimmie Drif[00:00:01]
Along about eighteen twenty five[00:00:11]
I left Tennessee very much alive[00:00:13]
I never would have got through the Arkansas mud[00:00:17]
If I hadn't been a ridin' on the Tennessee Stud[00:00:19]
I had some trouble with my sweetheart's pa[00:00:24]
And one of her brothers was a bad outlaw[00:00:27]
I sent her a letter by my Uncle Bud[00:00:31]
And I rode away on the Tennessee Stud[00:00:33]
The Tennessee Stud was long and lean[00:00:38]
The color of the sun and his eyes were green[00:00:41]
He had the nerve and he had the blood[00:00:45]
And there never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud[00:00:48]
We drifted on down into no man's land[00:01:01]
We crossed that river called the Rio Grande[00:01:04]
I raced my horse with the Spaniard's foal[00:01:08]
'Til I got me a skin full of silver and gold[00:01:11]
Me and a gambler we couldn't agree[00:01:16]
We got in a fight over Tennessee[00:01:18]
We jerked our guns and he fell with a thud[00:01:22]
And I got away on the Tennessee Stud[00:01:24]
The Tennessee Stud was long and lean[00:01:29]
The color of the sun and his eyes were green[00:01:32]
He had the nerve and he had the blood[00:01:36]
And there never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud[00:01:39]
I got just as lonesome as a man can be[00:01:50]
Dreamin' of my girl in Tennessee[00:01:52]
The Tennessee Stud's green eyes turned blue[00:01:56]
'Cause he was a dreamin' of a sweetheart too[00:01:59]
We loped right back across Arkansas[00:02:04]
I whupped her brother and I whupped her pa[00:02:06]
I found that girl with the golden hair[00:02:10]
And she was a riding on the Tennessee Mare[00:02:12]
The Tennessee Stud was long and lean[00:02:17]
The color of the sun and his eyes were green[00:02:20]
He had the nerve and he had the blood[00:02:24]
And there never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud[00:02:27]
Stirrup to stirrup and side by side[00:02:40]
We crossed the mountains and the valleys wide[00:02:43]
We came to big Muddy then we forded the flood[00:02:46]
On the Tennessee Mare and the Tennessee Stud[00:02:49]
A pretty little baby on the cabin floor[00:02:54]
A little horse colt playing 'round the door[00:02:56]
I love that girl with the golden hair[00:03:00]
And the Tennessee Stud loves the Tennessee Mare[00:03:03]
The Tennessee Stud was long and lean[00:03:08]
The color of the sun and his eyes were green[00:03:10]
He had the nerve and he had the blood[00:03:15]
And there never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud[00:03:17]
