Stewball (Peter Paul & Mary)
Old Stewball was a race horse, And I wish he
were mine. He never drank water, He always drank
wine.
His bridle was silver, His mane it was gold. And
the worth of his saddle, Has never been told.
I went to the fairgrounds, Old Stewball was
there. And the betting was heavy, On the bay and
the mare.
I bet on the gray mare, And I bet on the
bay. If I'd bet on old Stewball, I'd be a free
man today.
Oh, the hoot how he hooted, And the
turtledove moaned. I'm a poor boy in trouble, A
long way from home.
(repeat "Old Stewball was ...")
