Along about eighteen and twenty-five
I left Tennessee very much alive
I never would have made it through the Arkansas mud
If I hadn't been a-riding on the Tennessee StudchorusThe 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 StudI had some trouble with my sweetheart's pa
One of her brothers was a bad outlaw
I sent her a letter by my Uncle ThudAnd I rode away on the Tennessee StudOne day I was riding in a beautiful land
I run smack into an Indian band
They jumped their nags with a whoop and a yell
And away we rode like a bat out of HellI circled their camp for a time or two
Just to show what a Tennessee horse can do
The redskin boys couldn't get my blood'Cause I was a-riding on the Tennessee StudI drifted on down into no man's land
I crossed the river called the Rio GrandeI raced my horse with the Spaniards bold'Til I got me a skinful of silver and gold
Me and a gambler, we couldn't agree
We got in a fight over TennesseeWe jerked our guns, he fell with a thud
And I got away on the Tennessee StudWell I got as lonesome as a man can be
A-dreaming of my girl in TennesseeAnd the Tennessee Stud's green eyes turned blue'Cause he was a-dreaming of a sweetheart too
I loped on back across ArkansasAnd I whupped her brother and I whupped her pa
I found that girl with the golden hair
And she was a-riding on a Tennessee MareStirrup 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 and the Tennessee StudPretty little baby on the cabin floor
And a little horse colt playing 'round the door
I love the girl with the golden hair
And the Tennessee Stud loves the Tennessee Mare.
Ramblin' Jack Elliott, pseudonimo di Elliott Charles Adnopoz, è un musicista statunitense nato nel 1931. Considerato uno dei pionieri del revival folk degli anni '60, Elliott si distingue per la sua chitarra in stile flatpicking e la voce laconica e umoristica, spesso accompagnata dall'armonica. Il suo modo di cantare, teso con una voce nasale, ha influenzato artisti come Bob Dylan nei suoi primi anni. Elliott è un maestro della musica americana tradizionale, spaziando dal country al blues, dal bluegrass al folk. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi figurano "The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll", "Big Iron" e "Ramblin' Boy". Il suo album del 1964, "Ramblin' Jack Elliott", è considerato un classico del genere folk.
