On Top of Old Smokey

On top of old Shooter
A very dark bay
As tall as the tallest
And loving his hay
But the thing they never told us
Would stop us real fast
For my sweet loving Shooter
Would be sold the next day
We all went home crying
Our face was pure wet
For my sweet loving Shooter
Would never be back
I cried and I cried
Tell my pillow was wet
For my sweet loving Shooter
Would be gone by that noon
His new owner came at noon
And toke him away
I shall never see Shooter
In his pasture again
Maybe one day
I’ll see his again
My sweet loving Shooter
A horse of my one
