When I Was a Cowboy

Lead Belly

[Verse 1]
When I was a cowboy out on the western plains
When I was a cowboy out on the western plains
Well, I made about half a million just puttin' on the bridle reins
Come a caw caw yippee, come a caw caw yippee yippee yay

[Verse 2]
Oh, the hardest battle was fought on the western plains
Oh, the hardest battle was fought on the western plains
When me an' a bunch of cowboys run into Jesse James
Come a caw caw yippee, come a caw caw yippee yippee yay

[Verse 3]
I said, oh, the hardest battle was fought on Bunker's Hill
Oh, the hardest battle was fought on Bunker's Hill
When me an' a bunch of cowboys run into Buffalo Bill
Come a caw caw yippee, come a caw caw yippee yippee yay

[Verse 4]
If your house catch fire, an' there ain't no water 'round
If your house catch fire, an' there ain't no water 'round
Throw your jerry roll out the window, let the dadburn shack burn down
Come a caw caw yippee, come a caw caw yippee yippee yay

It's faster, "Cain" Hefferan (Yeah)

[Verse 5]
Come, all you cowboys, an' don't you wanna go?
Come on, all you cowboys, an' don't you wanna go?
Out to meet with the lone ranger, on the range into Buffalo
Come a caw caw yippee, come a caw caw yippee yippee yay

[Outro]
Come a caw caw yippee, come a caw caw yippee yippee yay
Come a caw caw yippee, come a caw caw yippee yippee yay
Yay, yay, yay-yay
