The Strawberry Roan - Moe Bandy[00:00:00]
I was hangin' 'round town[00:00:04]
Just spendin' my time[00:00:06]
Out of a job not earnin' a dime[00:00:08]
A feller steps up and he said I suppose[00:00:12]
You're a bronc fighter from looks of your clothes[00:00:17]
He figures me right[00:00:21]
I'm a good one I claim[00:00:23]
Do you happen to have any bad ones to tame[00:00:25]
Said he's got one a bad one to buck[00:00:30]
At throwin' good riders he's had lots of luck[00:00:34]
I gets all het up and I ask what he pays[00:00:42]
Ride this old nag for a couple of days[00:00:46]
He offered me ten and I said I'm your man[00:00:50]
A bronc never lived that I couldn't span[00:00:55]
He said get your saddle I'll give you a chance[00:00:59]
In his buckboard we hopped and he drives to the ranch[00:01:03]
I stayed 'til mornin' and right after chuck[00:01:08]
I stepped out to see if this outlaw can buck[00:01:12]
Down in the horse corral standin' alone[00:01:20]
Is an old caballo a strawberry roan[00:01:24]
His legs are all spavined he's got pigeon toes[00:01:29]
Little pig eyes and a big Roman nose[00:01:33]
Little pin ears[00:01:38]
That touched at the tip[00:01:40]
A big 44 brand was on his left hip[00:01:42]
U necked and old with a long lower jaw[00:01:46]
I could see with one eye he's a regular outlaw[00:01:50]
I gets the blinds on 'Im and it sure is a fright[00:01:58]
Next comes the saddle and I screws it down tight[00:02:03]
Then I steps on 'Im and I raises the blinds[00:02:07]
Get outta the way boys he's gonna unwind[00:02:11]
He sure a frog walker[00:02:16]
He heaves a big sigh[00:02:18]
He only lacks wings for to be on the fly[00:02:20]
He turns his old belly right up to the sun[00:02:25]
He sure is a sun fishin' son of a gun[00:02:29]
He's about the worst bucker I've seen on the range[00:02:36]
He'll turn on a nickel and give you some change[00:02:41]
He hits on all fours and it goes up on high[00:02:45]
Leaves me a spinnin' up there in the sky[00:02:50]
I turns over twice and I comes back to earth[00:02:54]
I lights in a cussin' the day of his birth[00:02:59]
I know there are ponies that I cannot ride[00:03:03]
Some of them left they haven't all died[00:03:07]
I'll bet all my money the man ain't alive[00:03:11]
That'll stay with strawberry[00:03:16]
When he makes his high dive[00:03:19]
