Cash, Johnny - Tennessee Stud Lyrics
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
One of her brothers was a bad outlaw
I wrote a letter to my Uncle Spud And
I rode away on the Tennessee Stud
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 never was a horse like Tennessee Stud
Drifted on down into no man's land
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

Cash, Johnny Tennessee Stud Comments
Johnny cash brought me here
Not to take away from JCash but go listen to Jimmie Driftwood's original version. He bends the notes when he sings the chorus so it sounds different. Also, the verse about the Arkansas Indians is left out.
Jimmie Driftwood done well.
Classic
The dislikes are Kentucky Sadler riders
O-R-D-E-L-L R-O-B-B-I-E bought me here! Someone nicked my Rick Rubin produced American Recordings set
this song gives me chills
The best Singer
Ordell pay my bond?
In cash.
$10,000.
He payed Beaumont's
Only if you get in the boot of my car with the shotgun
I don't know why this is my favourite Cash track, just his guitar and voice and the way he matches intonation and vocal is subtle but genius.
100.00 this is angela from catfish singing the song
Thanks Paul for hangingout with u at the beach, riding the long and widing road while listening this song is so unforgetable, thank you my friend
The Tennessee stud was a long and lean, the color of the sun and his eyes were green. My favorite part.
mine too!
Done back, problem settled.allgood in TN in 2019
And the Tennessee stud loves a Tennessee mare
Back 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 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 Fud
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 the Tennessee Stud
Drifted on down into no man's land
I crossed the river called the Rio Grande
I 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 Tennessee
We pulled our guns, he fell with a thud
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 the Tennessee Stud
I rode right back across Arkansas
And I whipped her brother and I whipped her pa
I found that girl with the golden hair
And she was riding on a Tennessee mare
Pretty little baby on the cabin floor
A little horse colt playing 'round the door
I love 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 never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud
Ordell Robbie is the Tennessee Stud!
2019 anyone????? ☺☺
I wrote a letter to my uncle Fudd, he hated screwy rabbits and we smoked some bud
Now that's funny
Johnny brought me here
Found this last night with Jack Daniels and Budweiser. Rick Reuben Americana.
I prefer Doc Watson
My dad brought me here
I Listened to this CD to it wouldn't Play, It Took 12 yrs !! This is as Perfect a Melding of Past and Present Revision & Collaboration that Has EVER Been Done as MOST Greats TRUE ICONS DO NOT LIVE LONG ENOUGH to SEE THE FRUITS of THEIR LABOR RIPEN and BE THANKED as RICK RUBIN HAS DONE for ICONIC JOHNNY CASH !! THIS RECORD is a MASTERPIECE on SO MANY LEVELS !!
This song is so simple yet so clever.
8 years HARD WORK
Scallops Hotel brought me here
Boy am I getting an education this morning. I had no idea this song was written by a fellow named Jimmy Driftwood (what a name) or that the same fellow wrote He Had a Long Chain on and The Battle of New Orleans. There's a reference to this song in one of my poems -- which you can hear on my channel (One Summer in Bloomington).
If you juxtapose the song with the poem you'll get a fascinating example of artistic cross pollination.
Nice ad
Yeah, I guess it is an ad. I wonder how effective it is as an ad.
Who could possibly dislike this? Seriously... State your case.
Carts of Darkness
Gotta have that blood! Tennessee Stub!
carts of darkness brought me here
This is to cool.
Why does this song remind me of red dead redemption
cuz it's country
because RDR3 needs way way more johnny cash than the past 2 games and it should be a prequel to the prequel there'll be lenny and that girl and it'll end at the start of RDR2
♥️XXXOOOXXX♥️
gun cocks.."Is that what I think is"? "What you think it is"? "I think its a gun pressed up against my dick".."Yes it is now take yo hands from around my throat..nigga".....
Not a big fan of too much Country music (other than Bluegrass & Western Swing), but this is a big fuckin' slice of Perfection ...
Tuuuuune
Rip Ordell Roby
😭😭😭😭
Rip big homie...nobody rocked the kangol like u on the west coast
I rode right back across arkansas I whipped her brother and i whipped her pa
Ordell Robbie brought me here
Best clinical depression song!!!
Actually, it's a song about love, confidence, loyalty and ultimately a happy ending.
He fell with a thud and I rode away on the Tennessee Stud
I enjoy Johnny Cash. However this version can't hold a candle to eddy Arnold

One of my favorite cash songs. About a young lad that had to learn to be tough as nails then came home to whoop the hammer and do some nailing of his own.
William Knittel Johnny covered it
this is Jimmy driftwwods sond... Jimmy wrote this song
Eldon Bollinger that’s fine. But hearing cash sing it makes it better.
nick1428 I like billy strings' version the best
Jimmie wrote it
