Tennessee Stud

Back about eighteen and twenty-five
I left Tennessee very much alive
I never would've made it through the Arkansas mud
If I hadn't been riding on the Tennessee Stud

Had some trouble with my sweetheart's Pa
One of her brothers was a bad outlaw
I wrote a letter to my Uncle Spud And
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 and he had the blood
There never was a horse like Tennessee Stud

Drifted on down into no man's land
Across the river called the Rio Grande
Raced my horse with the Spaniard's foe
Til I got me a skin full of silver and gold

Me and the gambler, we couldn't agree
We got in a fight over Tennessee
Pulled our guns and he fell with a thud
And I rode away on a Tennessee Stud

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
There was never a horse like the Tennessee Stud

I rode right back across Arkansas
I whipped her brother and
I whipped her Pa
I found that girl with the golden hair
She was riding on a Tennessee Mare

Pretty little baby on the cabin floor
Little horse colt playing round the door
I loved the girl with the golden hair
And the Tennessee Stud loves the Tennessee Mare

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
There was never a horse like the Tennessee Stud

Espárragos de Tennessee

De vuelta alrededor de dieciocho y veinticinco
Me fui de Tennessee muy vivo
Nunca hubiera atravesado el barro de Arkansas
Si no hubiera estado montando en el Tennessee Stud

Tuve problemas con el padre de mi novia
Uno de sus hermanos era un mal forajido
Escribí una carta a mi tío Spud Y
Me fui en el Tennessee Stud

El Tennessee Stud era largo y delgado
El color del sol y sus ojos eran verdes
Tenía el valor y la sangre
Nunca hubo un caballo como Tennessee Stud

A la deriva hacia la tierra de nadie
Al otro lado del río llamado el Río Grande
Corrió mi caballo con el enemigo del español
Hasta que me di una piel llena de plata y oro

Yo y el jugador, no podíamos estar de acuerdo
Nos peleamos por Tennessee
Sacó nuestras armas y cayó con un ruido
Y me fui en un Tennessee Stud

El Tennessee Stud era largo y delgado
El color del sol y sus ojos eran verdes
Tenía el valor y la sangre
Nunca hubo un caballo como el Tennessee Stud

Volví a través de Arkansas
Golpeé a su hermano y
Le azoté a su papá
Encontré a esa chica con el pelo dorado
Estaba montando en una yegua de Tennessee

Bonito bebé en el piso de la cabina
Pequeño caballo potro jugando alrededor de la puerta
Me encantó la chica con el pelo dorado
Y el semental de Tennessee ama a la yegua de Tennessee

El Tennessee Stud era largo y delgado
El color del sol y sus ojos eran verdes
Tenía el valor y la sangre
Nunca hubo un caballo como el Tennessee Stud
