Lyrics

Well, there never was a hoss
 Like the Tennessee Stud
 Along about 18 to 25
 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 sweethearts, pa
 One of her brothers
 Was a bad outlaw
 I sent her a letter
 By my Uncle Fud
 An 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 an he had the blood
 And there never was a hoss like the Tennessee Stud
 We drifted on down
 Into no man's land
 We crossed the river
 Called the Rio Grande
 I raced my hoss
 With the Spaniards bold
 'Till I got me a skin
 Full-a silver an gold
 Me an a gambler
 Couldn't agree
 We got in a fight
 Over Tennessee
 We jerked our guns
 He fell with a thud
 An I got away
 On the Tennessee Stud
 Well, I got as lonesome
 As a man can be
 A-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 on
 Across Arkansas
 I wupped her brother
 And I wupped her pa
 I found that girl
 With the golden hair
 An she was a-ridin'
 On the Tennessee mare
 The Tennessee Stud was long an lean
 The color of the sun
 And his eyes were green
 He had the nerve an a-he had the blood
 And there never was a hoss like the Tennessee Stud
 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
 On the Tennessee mare
 An the Tennessee Stud
 Purdy little baby
 On the cabin floor
 Little hoss colt
 Playin' round the door
 I love the girl
 With the golden hair
 And the Tennessee Stud
 Loves the Tennessee Mare
 The Tennessee Stud was long an lean
 The color of the sun
 And his eyes were green
 He had the nerve an he had the blood
 And there never was a hoss like the Tennessee Stud.
