about

Came to me when I was stuck on a mountain side in Colorado.

lyrics

Jethro was walking down a long dirt Road
Thinking to himself why did I ever go
And leave that dear, sweet woman, my Loving lady Behind
Sitting waiting for me on a Tennessee Mountain Side

He climbed on his pony and a way he did ride
Thinking to himself why can’t my pony fly,
How long, how long it’s going to be
Before a spotted pony can make it on back to Tennessee?

When you find yourself beside a cool clear mountain river
Sitting and thinking how lovely everything can be
Sitting and watching the breeze flitting through the trees
Until you start to think about your home so far away.

I had me a pony 14 hands high
When she would jump we could touch the sky
Liked her oats, warmed up just so
And where ever we went, my word, that pony could go

I’m sitting here and watching out my window
Watching the snow drift by the shade
I wonder if it’s snowing in Giles County
Snowing in my home so far away

I think I’ll go just one more round and then this
Tennessee Rider will be homeward bound
Slipping and sliding, just as pretty as can be
Hoping this 62 Chevy can make it on back to Tennessee.
