Tennessee Stud

G
Along about eighteen twenty five
  F
I left Tennessee very much alive
      G
And I never would got through the 
Arkansas mud
If I hadn't been a-riding that 
D7        G
Tennessee Stud

V#2

I had me some trouble with my 
sweetheart's Paw
    F
One of her brothers was a bad outlaw
       G
I sent her a letter by my Uncle Fud
                        D7        
Then I rode away on the Tennessee 
G
Stud

Chorus:
                       F        G
The Tennessee Stud was long and mean
    C                        A7   
The color of the sun and his eyes 
     D7
were green
G                    F          
He had the nerve and he had the 
G
blood
And there never was a horse like the
 D7        G
 Tennessee Stud

V#3

We drifted on down into no man's 
land
    F
And crossed that river called the 
Rio Grande
  G
I raced my hoss with a Spaniard's 
foal
                             D7    
Till I got me a skin full of silver
     G
 and gold

V#4

Me and the gambler we couldn't agree
   F
We got in a fight over Tennessee
   G
We jerked our guns and he fell with 
a thud
                      D7        G
And I got away on the Tennessee Stud

V#5

Well, I got just as lonesome as a 
man could be
  F
A-dreaming of my girl in Tennessee
    G
The Tennessee Stud's green eyes 
turned blue
Cause he was dreaming bout his 
D7         G
sweetheart too

V#6

We loped right back across Arkansas
  F
I whooped her brother and I whooped 
her Paw
     G
When I found that girl with the 
golden hair
                      D7        G
She was a-riding that Tennessee Mare

Chorus:
                       F        G
The Tennessee Stud was long and mean
    C                        A7   
The color of the sun and his eyes 
     D7
were green
G                    F          
He had the nerve and he had the 
G
blood
And there never was a horse like the
 D7        G
 Tennessee Stud

V#7

Stirrup to stirrup and side by side
   F
We crossed them mountains and the 
valleys wide
   G
We came to big muddy and then we 
forded a flood
On the Tennessee Mare and the 
D7        G
Tennessee Stud

V#8

Pretty little baby on the cabin 
floor
      F
And a little horse colt playing 
'round the door
  G
I love the girl with the golden hair
And the Tennessee Stud loves the 
D7        G
Tennessee Mare

Chorus:
                       F        G
The Tennessee Stud was long and mean
    C                        A7   
The color of the sun and his eyes 
     D7
were green
G                    F          
He had the nerve and he had the 
G
blood
And there never was a horse like the
 D7        G
