Shamrock Sturgill Simpson

[Verse 1]
Never was a finer breed than the steed that was Shamrock
Plain to see by his conformation that he came from finest stock
Daddy was a black mammoth jack, Mama was a thoroughbred mare
Had four white feet wore a buckskin coat, wore a mohawk in his hair

[Chorus]
Stood about nineteen hands, didn't need no kick to go
Old Dood up top, deep in the saddle hollerin'
Woah boy woah, woah boy woah

[Verse 2]
Only ever had one rider, anyone else was gettin' bucked
Cross any kind of land through the rain and snow and muck
Sure-footed as a billy goat with thirty-three inch ears
Clog dance on a snake with his front two feet and give coyotes the rear
Kick so hard it sent them up and out the stratosphere
Make a coyote fly so far it wouldn't land until nеxt year

[Chorus]
From the hightop to the hollеr, no places Sham can't go
Old Dood up top, deep in the saddle hollerin'
Woah boy woah, woah boy woah

[Verse 3]
Ain't scared to cross that river, jump clear across that creek
Steed don't need no shoes when his hooves is one-foot thick
Leather and tack can't hold him back and he'll bite right through a bit
Rope bridle made of mooring line was the only thing that fit
