Oh Stewball was a racehorse, and I wish he were mine. B E A/B

He never drank water, he always drank wine. E F#m

His bridle was silver, his mane it was gold. B E A/B

And the worth of his saddle has never been told. E F#m

Oh the fairgrounds were crowded, and Stewball was there B E A/B

But the betting was heavy on the bay and the mare. E F#m

And a-way up yonder, ahead of them all, B E A/B

Came a-prancing and a-dancing my noble Stewball. E F#m

I bet on the grey mare, I bet on the bay B E A/B

If I’d have bet on old Stewball, I’d be a free man today. E F#m

Oh the hoot owl, she hollers, and the turtle dove moans. B E A/B

I’m a poor boy in trouble, I’m a long way from home. E F#m
