《Tennessee Stud》歌词

[00:03:38] Along about eighteen twenty-five,

[00:03:38] I left Tennessee very much alive.

[00:03:38] I never would have got through the Arkansas mud

[00:03:38] If I hadn＇t been a-ridin＇ on the Tennessee Stud.

[00:03:38] I had some trouble with my sweetheart＇s pa,

[00:03:38] And one of her brothers was a bad outlaw.

[00:03:38] I sent her a letter by my Uncle Bud,

[00:03:38] And I rode away on the Tennessee Stud.

[00:03:38] The Tennessee Stud was long and lean,

[00:03:38] The color of the sun, and his eyes were green.

[00:03:38] He had the nerve and he had the blood,

[00:03:38] And there never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud.

[00:03:38] One day I was riding in a beautiful land

[00:03:38] I run smack into an Indian band

[00:03:38] They jumped their nags with a whoop and a yell

[00:03:38] And away we rode like a bat out of hell.

[00:03:38] I circled their camp for a time or two,

[00:03:38] Just to show what a Tennessee horse can do.

[00:03:38] The redskin boys couldn＇t get my blood,

[00:03:38] ＇Cause I was a-riding on the Tennessee Stud.

[00:03:38] We drifted on down into no man＇s land,

[00:03:38] We crossed that river called the Rio Grande.

[00:03:38] I raced my horse with the Spaniard＇s foal

[00:03:38] ＇Til I got me a skin full of silver and gold.

[00:03:38] Me and a gambler, we couldn＇t agree,

[00:03:38] We got in a fight over Tennessee.

[00:03:38] We jerked our guns, and he fell with a thud,

[00:03:38] And I got away on the Tennessee Stud.

[00:03:38] I got just as lonesome as a man can be,

[00:03:38] Dreamin＇ of my girl in Tennessee.

[00:03:38] The Tennessee Stud＇s green eyes turned blue

[00:03:38] ＇Cause he was a-dreamin＇ of a sweetheart, too,

[00:03:38] We loped right back across Arkansas;

[00:03:38] I whupped her brother and I whupped her pa.

[00:03:38] I found that girl with the golden hair,

[00:03:38] And she was a-riding on the Tennessee Mare.

[00:03:38] Stirrup to stirrup and side by side,

[00:03:38] We crossed the mountains and the valleys wide.

[00:03:38] We came to Big Muddy, then we forded the flood

[00:03:38] On the Tennessee Mare and the Tennessee Stud.

[00:03:38] A pretty little baby on the cabin floor,

[00:03:38] A little horse colt playing ＇round the door,

[00:03:38] I love that girl with the golden hair,

[00:03:38] And the Tennessee Stud loves the Tennessee Mare.
