Subject: RE: Does anyone know this song? 16 Horses
This probably won't help but there is also a reference to "16" in an old blues song entitled "Mystery Train" which was also covered by Elvis in the mid-50s:
The train I ride is sixteen coaches long Yeah, the train I ride is 16 coaches long Big black train took my baby and gone...
I think that Big Arthur Cruddup wrote it but not sure...
