Is there a classic rock song about the headless horseman?

[MrMatt]

I was at a bar tonight and could've sworn I heard an older rock song that mentioned the headless horseman. I think it had kind of a bluesy feel to it, but it was definitely classic rock. I couldn't really hear it over the din in the bar, but it still piqued my interest. Any idea what it could've been?

Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner?

classic rock 60's? 70's? 80's?

Sounded more like 60's or 70's to me, but I'm not that familiar with the genre. Male singer if that helps

Black Sabbath had a song called Headless Cross. It mentioned legions riding, so that could be it.
