Buffalo Skinners (Remaster) - Woody Guthrie/The Almanac Singers[00:00:00]

Come all you old time cowboys[00:00:04]

And listen to my song[00:00:08]

Please do not grow weary[00:00:12]

I'll not detain you long[00:00:16]

Concerning some wild cowboys[00:00:21]

Who did agree to go[00:00:24]

Spend the summer pleasant[00:00:27]

On the trail of the Buffalo[00:00:31]

I found myself in Griffin[00:00:36]

In the spring of 83[00:00:39]

When a well known famous drover[00:00:43]

Came walking up to me[00:00:47]

Said how do you do young fellow[00:00:52]

Well how would you like to go[00:00:55]

And spend the summer pleasant[00:00:59]

On the trail of the Buffalo[00:01:02]

Well I being out of work right then[00:01:07]

To the drover I did say[00:01:09]

Going out on the Buffalo Road[00:01:11]

Depends on the pay[00:01:13]

If you will pay good wages[00:01:16]

And transportation to and fro[00:01:18]

I think I might go with you[00:01:21]

On the hunt of the Buffalo[00:01:24]

Of course I'll pay good wages[00:01:29]

And transportation too[00:01:32]

If you will agree to work for me[00:01:34]

Until the season's through[00:01:36]

But if you do get homesick[00:01:39]

And you try to run away[00:01:42]

You will starve to death[00:01:45]

Out on the trail and also lose your pay[00:01:46]

Well with all his flattering talking[00:01:53]

He signed up quite a train[00:01:56]

Some 10 or 12 in number[00:01:59]

Some able bodied men[00:02:02]

A trip it was a pleasant one[00:02:07]

As we hit the westward road[00:02:10]

Until we crossed old Boggy Creek[00:02:14]

In old New Mexico[00:02:17]

There our pleasures ended[00:02:21]

And our troubles all began[00:02:23]

A lightening storm hit us[00:02:26]

And made the cattle run[00:02:29]

Got all full of stickers[00:02:31]

From the cactus that did not grow[00:02:34]

And the outlaws watching[00:02:37]

To pick us off in the hills of Mexico[00:02:38]

Well our working season ended[00:02:44]

And the drover would not pay[00:02:47]

If you had not drunk too much[00:02:50]

You are all in debt to me[00:02:53]

But the cowboys never had heard[00:02:58]

Such a thing as a bankrupt law[00:03:01]

So we left that drover's bones to bleach[00:03:05]

On the plains of the Buffalo[00:03:09]
