lirik lagu doc watson - the tennessee stud (songs for little pickers)
[verse 1]
along about eighteen twenty~five
i left tennessee very much alive
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
one of her brothers was a bad outlaw
i sent her a letter by my uncle dud
then i rode away on the tennessee stud
[chorus]
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
[verse 2]
one day i was riding through a beautiful land
when i ran smack into an indian band
they jumped their nags with a whoop and a yell
and away we rode like a bat out of
well i circled their camp for a time or two
just to show what a tennessee horse could do
the redskin boys couldn’t get my blood
’cause i was a~riding that tennessee stud
[chorus]
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
[verse 3]
so we drifted on down into no man’s land
and 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
and i got away on the tennessee stud
[chorus]
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
[verse 4]
well i got just as lonesome as a man can be
dreamin’ of my girl in tennessee
and that tennessee stud’s green eyes turned blue
’cause he was a~dreamin’ of a sweetheart, too (easy big fella)
so we loped right back across arkansas;
i beat up her brother and then i had to slap her pa
when i found that girl with the golden hair
she was a~riding on the tennessee mare
woah boy
[chorus]
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
[verse 5]
stirrup to stirrup and side by side
we crossed the mountains and the valleys wide
came to big muddy, then we forded the flood
on the tennessee mare and the tennessee stud
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
they was good horses
[chorus]
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
[outro]
thank you folks

thank you
