[Verse 1]
[C]One day I thought I would
have some fun,
I'd [F]see how punching [C]cows was done.
So the week of the cattle run,
I [F]cornered the cattle [C]king.
Says [F]he, my foreman has [C]gone to town,
He's [G]in a saloon, his name is Brown.
[C]Look him up and he'll take you down,
Says [F]I, that's [G]just the [C]thing.
We started for the ranch next day,
[F]Brown he talked to me [C]all the way.
He says, punchin' cows is play,
why it [F]isn't work at [C]all.
[F]All you gotta [C]do is ride [G]as easy
as floatin' with the tide.
[C]That son of a gun, how he lied,
he [F]certainly [G]had his [C]gall.
Sometimes the cattle would make a break
[F]Out across the [C]plains they would take
Like they was racin' for a stake
Or [F]maybe a raisin' [C]pay
Some[F]times my horse
would [C]stumble and fall
[G]And I couldn't stop myself at all
[C]I'd fly through the air like a cannonball
Till the [F]ground [G]come up my [C]way
Then they tied me on to an old greyhack
With [F]saddle -horns upon [C]his back.
They bedded me down with a gunny -sack
And [F]pillows and blankets [C]all.
When [F]I got on him he l[C]eft the ground,
He went [G]up in the air
and he circled around.
[C]I fell off, I busted the ground,
Oh, [F]brother, [G]was that a [C]fall!
Well, they picked me up
and they carried me in,
They [F]rubbed me down
with a [C]rolling pin.
That's the way they all begin,
You're [F]do ing fine, said [C]Brown,
And [F]tomorrow morning,
if [C]you don't die,
I'll [G]give you another horse to try.
[C]Do you mind if I walk, says I,
A cowboy walk, you're [F]fired,
[G]get back to town.
[C]Well, I traveled up and I traveled down,
[F]Lived in cities, I [C]lived in the town,
Traveled the whole wide
world around,
[F]I've got this much to [C]say.
Before [F]you go cow punch and
[C]kiss your wife,
Put a [G]heavy insurance upon your life,
[C]Then cut your throat with a butcher knife,
It's [F]easier [G]to die that [C]way. you
