Dm Bb C Dm Well come on you old time cowboys and listen to my song Dm C Dm Please do not grow weary I'll not detain you long Dm C G/B Conserning some wild cowboys who dare agree to go Dm Bb C Dm Spend the summer pleasant on the trail of the buffalo
VERSE 2
Dm Bb C Dm Well I found myself in Griffen in the spring of 83' Dm C Dm When a well known famous drover he came walkin' up to me Dm C G/B He said, "How'd ya do young fella how'd you like to go Dm Bb C Dm Spend the summer pleasant on the range of the buffalo"
VERSE 3
Dm Bb C Dm Well me being outta work right then to the drover I did say Dm C Dm Goin' out on your buffalo road depends upon your pay Dm C G/B And if ya pay good wages transpertation to and fro Dm Bb C Dm I think I might go with you on the hunt of the buffalo
VERSE 4
Dm Bb C Dm Well of course I pay good wages and transpertation too Dm C Dm If you agree to work with me until the season's thru Dm C G/B But if you do get home sick and ya try to run away Dm Bb Your gonna starve to death out on that trail C Dm and also loose your pay
VERSE 5
Dm Bb C Dm Well with all that flatterin' talkin' he signed up quite a train Dm C Dm Some ten or twelve in number all able bodied men Dm C G/B And our tip it was a pleasant one as we hit that westward road Dm Bb C Dm Until we crossed old Boggy Creek and old New Mexico
VERSE 6
Dm Bb C Dm That's when our pleasure ended and the troubles all begun Dm C Dm It was a lightening storm that hit us and made all our horses run Dm C G/B We got all full of stickers from the cactus that did grow Dm Bb C Dm And the outlaws watched to pick us off from the hills of Mexico
VERSE 7
Dm Bb C Dm Well our workin season had ended but the drover would not pay Dm C Dm He said you drunk up all your wages boys your all in debt to me Dm C G/B Us cowboys never had heard of such a thing as that new bankrupt law Dm Bb C Dm So we left that drovers bones to bleach on the trail of the buffalo
