  We classify (semi)stable sheaves on a rational curve with one node. The
results are based on the classification of indecomposable torsion-free sheaves
due to Drozd and Greuel "Tame and wild projective curves and classification of
vector bundles", where the sheaves are described in terms of certain
combinatorial data. We translate the condition of (semi)stability into this
combinatorial language and solve the so obtained problem.
