I'm An Old Cowhand (From The Rio Grande)

Lyrics

Oh, step aside, y'all ornery tenderfeet
 Cause I'm about to sing my song
 I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
 But my legs ain't bowed, and my cheeks ain't tan
 Well I'm a cowboy who never saw a cow
 Never roped a steer 'cause I don't know how
 And I sure ain't fixin' to startin now
 Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay
 I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
 And I learned to ride before I learned to stand
 Well I'm a ridin fool who is up to date
 I know every trail in the Lone Star State
 'Cause I ride the range in a Ford V-8
 Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay
 Look out, I'm gonna show y'all how to ride now
 Here we go
 I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
 And I come to town just to hear the band
 I know all the songs that the cowboys know
 'Bout the big corral where the dogies go
 'Cause I learned them all on the radio
 Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay
 Now my story's almost done, so listen up!
 You ain't got much longer now
 I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
 Where the west is wild round the borderland
 Where the buffalo roam around the zoo
 And the indian make you a rug or two
 And the old Bar-X is the Bar-be-cue
 Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay
 I'm just an old cowhand...
