The Buffalo Skinners - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]

'Twas in the town o' Jacksboro in the spring o' seventy three[00:00:04]

A man by the name o' Crego come steppin' up to me[00:00:11]

Said how d'you do young fellers and how'd you like to go[00:00:18]

And spend one summer pleasantly on the range o' the buffalo[00:00:24]

It's me bein' out of employment to ol' Crego I did say[00:00:32]

This goin' out on the buffalo range depends upon the pay[00:00:38]

But if you'll pay good wages and transportation too[00:00:44]

I think sir I will go with you[00:00:50]

To the range o' the buffalo[00:00:54]

Well it's now we've crossed Pease river boys[00:01:00]

Our troubles they have begun[00:01:03]

First old stinker that I cut Christ how I cut my thumb[00:01:09]

While skinnin' the dog gone ol' buffalo[00:01:16]

Our lives they had no show[00:01:19]

For the Indians watched to pick us off while skinnin' the buffalo[00:01:22]

The season bein' near over ol' Crego he did say[00:01:33]

The crowd had been extravagant was in debt to him that day[00:01:41]

We coaxed him an' we argued but still it was no go[00:01:49]

We left his damned ol' bones to bleached[00:01:58]

On the range o' the buffalo[00:02:00]

It's now we've crossed pease river and homeward we are bound[00:02:06]

No more in that old fire country will ever we be found[00:02:15]

Go back to our wives and sweethearts tell others not to go[00:02:23]

For God's forsaken the buffalo range and the d**n ol' buffalo[00:02:32]
