[Verse 1]
Swinging [Em]in
To old Fort Worth [G]in 1883
Some old Mexican cow[Em]boy
Come [C]steppin' up [G]to me
Sayin' how are you [Em]young fella
When [C]would you like [G]to go
[Em]And spend [C]another season
with me in Mexico
[G]I h[Em]ad no [C]employment
Back to him [G]did say
It's according to [Em]your wages
[C]According to [G]your pay
Said I'll pay you [Em]good wages
[C]And often too you[G] now
If [Em]you spend [C]another season
with me in Mexico

[G]I w[Em]ent up [C]to this cowboy
I offered him [G]my hand
But he gave a string [Em]of horses
[C]So old they couldn't[G] stand
How nearly starved [Em]to death [C]boys
I mean to let [G]you know
And [Em]I nev[C]er saw a dollar
in those hills of Mexico
[G]I g[Em]ot up on [C]that steamboat and back
to home [G]did go
How them bells they [Em]did [C]ring
Those whistles [G]did blow
How them bells they did [Em]ring[C]
Those whistles [G]did blow
[Em]On that godfor[C]saken fortune
