Buffalo Skinners - Cisco Houston[00:00:00]

Come all you old time cowboys and listen to my song[00:00:03]

Please do not grow weary I'll not detain you long[00:00:09]

Concerning some wild cowboys who did agree to go[00:00:18]

And the spend the summer pleasant on the range of the buffalo[00:00:24]

Well I found myself in griffin in 1883[00:00:32]

When a well known famous drover come walkin' up to me[00:00:39]

He said how do you do young feller[00:00:47]

And how'd you like to go[00:00:50]

And spend the summer pleasant[00:00:53]

On the trail of the buffalo[00:00:56]

Well me bein' out of work right[00:01:00]

Then to that drover I did say[00:01:02]

This goin' out on the buffalo road depends upon your pay[00:01:06]

If you'll pay good wages transportation to and fro[00:01:15]

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

On the range of the buffalo[00:01:24]

Yes I will pay good wages and transportation too[00:01:28]

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

Until the season's through[00:01:37]

But if you do grow homesick[00:01:41]

And try to run away[00:01:45]

You'll starve to death out on the[00:01:48]

Trail and you'll also lose your pay[00:01:50]

Well with all this flatterin' talkin'[00:01:57]

Well he signed up quite a train[00:02:00]

Some ten or twelve in number all able bodied men[00:02:04]

Our trip it was a pleasant one[00:02:12]

As we hit the westward road[00:02:15]

Until we struck old boggy creek in old new Mexico[00:02:18]

Well here our pleasures ended and our troubles all begun[00:02:26]

When a lightin' storm hit us[00:02:32]

And it made the cattle run[00:02:36]

We got all full of stickers[00:02:40]

From the cactus that did grow[00:02:44]

And the outlaws waitin' to pick us off in old new Mexico[00:02:47]

Well our workin' season ended[00:02:55]

But that drover would not pay[00:02:59]

He said you went and drunk too much[00:03:03]

You're all in debt to me[00:03:07]

But the cowboys never had heard of[00:03:11]

Such a thing as a bankrupt law[00:03:15]

So we left that drover's bones to bleach[00:03:19]

On the range of the buffalo[00:03:23]
