Buffalo Skinners - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]

Come all you old time cowboys [00:00:07]

And listen to my song [00:00:10]

Please do not grow weary [00:00:14]

I'll not detain you long [00:00:17]

Concerning some wild cowboys [00:00:23]

Who did agree to go [00:00:26]

Spend the summer pleasant [00:00:30]

On the trail of the Buffalo [00:00:33]

I found myself in Griffin [00:00:38]

In the spring of '83 [00:00:42]

When a well known famous drover [00:00:45]

Came walking up to me [00:00:50]

Said "How do you do young fellow [00:00:55]

Well how would you like to go [00:00:58]

And spend the summer pleasant [00:01:02]

On the trail of the Buffalo "[00:01:05]

Well I being out of work right then [00:01:10]

To the drover I did say [00:01:12]

"Going out on the Buffalo Road [00:01:15]

Depends on the pay [00:01:16]

If you will pay good wages [00:01:19]

And transportation to and fro [00:01:22]

I think I might go with you [00:01:25]

On the hunt of the Buffalo "[00:01:28]

"Of course I'll pay good wages [00:01:33]

And transportation too [00:01:36]

If you will agree to work for me [00:01:38]

Until the season's through "[00:01:40]

But if you do get homesick [00:01:43]

And try to run away [00:01:47]

You will starve to death [00:01:49]

Out on the trail[00:01:50]

And also lose your pay "[00:01:53]

Well with all his flattering talking [00:01:57]

He signed up quite a train [00:01:59]

Some 10 or 12 in number [00:02:02]

Some able bodied men [00:02:05]

The trip it was a pleasant one [00:02:10]

As we hit the westward road [00:02:13]

Until we crossed old Boggy Creek [00:02:17]

In old New Mexico [00:02:20]

There our pleasures ended [00:02:24]

And our troubles began [00:02:27]

A lightening storm hit us [00:02:30]

And made the cattle run [00:02:32]

Got all full of stickers [00:02:35]

From the cactus that did not grow [00:02:38]

And the outlaws watching [00:02:41]

To pick us off in the hills of Mexico [00:02:42]

Well our working season ended [00:02:48]

And the drover would not pay [00:02:51]

If you had not drunk too much [00:02:55]

You are all in debt to me [00:02:58]

But the cowboys never had heard [00:03:03]

Such a thing as a bankrupt law [00:03:06]

So we left that drover's bones to bleach [00:03:10]

On the Plains of the Buffalo[00:03:14]
