[Verse 3]
On [Eb]a ten dollar horse and a forty dollar saddle
I started out punching those long horn cattle

[Verse 4]
[Eb]I get up in the morning before daylight
And I go to sleep when

[Interlude 1]
the moon shines bright
[Eb]

[Verse 5]
Oh it's the [Eb]bacon and beans
'most every day

[Interlude 2]
I'd sooner be a- eating on prairie hay
[Eb]

[Verse 6]
Well it's [Eb]working all day
in the blazing ssun

[Interlude 3]
Long on trouble, short on fun
[Eb]

[Verse 7]
We [Eb]stop for water by
a mountain stream
Watching the clouds and

[Interlude 4]
dreaming our dream
[Eb]

[Verse 8]
[Eb]So long friends I hope to see you soon

[Outro 1]
Until we meet again keep a' singing this tune
[Eb]
