From the same source:

L-249-1 "Ridin' Horse"

Cryin', who's that yonder comin' down the road, comin' down the road?
Now, who's that yonder comin' down the road?
Well it looks like Maggie Campbell, gut she walks too slow.

Cryin', want me back, lord, comin' back so, comin' back so slow.
Mmm, want me back, lord, I'm comin' back so slow.
They won't forget it, they will charge me, sins done eight long years ago

Cryin' see see rider, see what you done done, see what you done done. Mmmm
See see rider, see what you done done.
You done made me love you, now you're tryin' to put me down

Now, and I ain't gonna be your ridin' horse no more, ridin' horse no more
I ain't gonna be your ridin' horse no more
Long before I be, I will take morphine and die.

What good is a bulldog, he won't bark or bite, he won't bark or bite?
What good is a bulldog, he won't bark or bite?
Say what good is a woman, she won't ask what mens do like

Now, who's that yonder, baby, dressed in red, baby all dressed in red?
Now, who's that yonder, baby, dressed in red?
Says it looks like Maggie Campbell, mama, walkin' on down the road.
