I'm Bound to Follow the Longhorn Cows - Alan Lomax
I'm bound to follow the longhorn cows
Until I get too old
It's well I work for wages boys
And get my pay in gold
My bosses they all like me well;
They say I'm hard to beat
Because I give 'em the bum stand-off
They know I've got the cheek
Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay
Now I'm a Texas cowboy just off the stormy plains
My trade is girtin' saddles and pullin' bridle reins
Oh I can tip the lasso; it is with graceful ease
I can rope a streak of lightnin'
And ride 'er where I please
Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay
Now if I had me a little stake
I soon would married be
But another week and I must go;
The boss said so today
My girl must cheer up courage
And choose some other one
For I'm bound to follow the Lone Star Trail
Until my race is won
Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay
It's when we're on the trail
Where the dust and the billows fly
It's fifty miles from water
And the grass is scorchin' dry;
The boss gets mad and ringy
As you can plainly see
And I want to leave the trail my boys
And an honest farmer be
Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay
And when we get them bedded boys
We think it's for the night
Some horse will shake his saddle
And give that herd a fright
They'll rise up to their feet my boys
And madly dash away
Then it's movin' time;
"To the lead my boys "
You'll hear some cowboy say
Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay
And when we get them rounded up
And quietened down again
A dark cloud will rise in the west
And fire will play on their horns
The boss will say
"Stay with 'em boys; your pay will be in gold "
I'm bound to follow the longhorn steer
Until I get too old
Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay
When I get in Kansas I had a pleasant dream
I dreamt I's down on the Trinity
Down by that pleasant stream
My true love right beside me
She'd come to go my bail
But I woke up broken-hearted
With a yearling by the tail
Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay
Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay Ki-yi-yippee yippee-yay
