Tonart: C# minor
Verse 1
C#m
I'd like to sing an old
-time cowboy song
A
that comes from West Texas,
from the old days before
they had ranching out there
and they were clearing
the country of buffalo.
This is Woody Guthrie's version
of a song called Buffalo Skinners.
A
Come all your time, cowboys,
C#m
and listen to my song.
Please do not grow weary,
I'll not detain you long.
Concerning some wild cowboys
that did agree to go
And spend a summer pleasant
on the range of the buffalo
I found myself in Griffin in the year of 83
When a well -known, famous drover
Come a -walkin' up to me
Sayin', how do you do, young fellow
And how'd you like to go
And spend her summer pleasant
On the range of the buffalo
Well, me been out of work right then
To this drover I did say
This goin' out on the buffalo road
Depends upon your pay
But if you pay good wages,
transportation to and fro,
I think I might go with you
A
C#m
on the Trail of Buffalo.
Yes, I will pay good wages
and transportation,
If you'll agree to work for me
until the season's through
But if you do grow homesick
and you try to run away.
You'll starve to death out on the trail,
and also lose your pay.
A
Well with all this flattering talking,
C#m
he signed up quite a train.
Some ten or twelve a number,
some Able -bodied man, our trip,
it was a pleasant one
As we hit the Westwood Road
Until we reached old Bulky Creek
Verse 2
In old New Mexico
C#m
Was there our pleasures ended
And our troubles all begun
A lightning storm hit us
and it made the cattle run
Got all full of stickers
from the cactus that did grow
Outlaws watchin' for to pick us all
From the hills of Mexico
Well our workin' season ended
And the drover would not pay
You went drunk too much,
you're all in debt to me
But the cowboys never had heard
Of such a thing as a bankrupt law
So we left that drover's bones to bleach
A
C#m
on the trail of the buffalo. on
