I've been living in Phoenix for 41 years now, and that poor horse did have a name. Of course it's an Indian name,so it doesn't translate well.
Running Stud with Tail, translates to, Mineisbiggerthanyours.
America just couldn't fit the name into the song, so they didn't bother....Show more

I think the horse HAD a name. The horse was with "No Name". No Name was a crazy old desert guy.

.... i've no bloody idear WHY the horse has no name ... BUT i CAN tell you, that if one more person says it's a Neil Diamond or James Taylor song, i swear by the throne of heaven AND the worn out strings on Lindesy Buckinghams guitar, that i am going to personally rip their musically challenged eardrums straight out through their nostrils!

AMERICA is the artist. *sighs*
