John Alcorn: If you want information about a different song than the one named in the title of this thread, it's best to start a new thread. (Assuming there isn't already a thread about THE GENERAL'S HORSE. I checked. I couldn't find one.) Then more people will notice your request.

p.s. I did a search of my usual sources, and I couldn't find a mention of any song called THE GENERAL'S HORSE. Are you sure you have the title right?
