Tennessee Stud Lyrics

Back 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 his
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 Spaiard 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 and he fell with a thud and I got
away on the Tennessee Stud

Well I got just as lonesome as a man can be dreamin'Hank Williams Jr. - Tennessee Stud - http://motolyrics.com/hank-williams-jr/tennessee-stud-lyrics.html
of my girl in Tennessee

The Tennessee Stud's green eyes turned blue

Cause he was dreamin' of his sweetheart too

We loped right back across Arkansas I whipped her brother
and whipped her pa

I found that girl with the golden hair and she was
a ridin' on the Tennessee Mare

The Tennesee Stud was long and lean...

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 baby and the cabin floor a little horse
cold playin' round the door

And I love the girl with the golden hair

And the Tennessee Stud loves the Tennessee Mare

The Tennesee Stud was long and lean...
