The Big Black Bull (Sam Houston)

The big black bull came down from the mountain
     Houston, Sam Houston
The big black bull came down from the mountain
     Long time ago.

cho: Long time ago, long time ago
     The big black bull came down from the mountain
     Long time a go.

(similarly)

He spied a heifer in the pasture

He jumped the fence and jumped that heifer

He missed his mark and ffft in the pasture

His tool ran dry and his balls grew hollow

Wiped his cock on a hickory sapling

The big black bull went back to the mountain

From Erotic muse, Cray
Sung by Cyril Tawney

note: clearly related to the shanty: Leave Her
   Johnny, Leave Her RG
