Randy Travis - The Old Chisholm Trail Lyrics
Well, come along boys and listen to my taleI'll tell you all my troubles on the ol' Chisholm TrailCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.I started up the trail October twenty-thirdStarted up the trail with the U-2 herdCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.On a ten dollar horse and a forty dollar saddleStarted out punchin' them long horn cattleCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.With my seat in the saddle and my hand on the hornI'm the best dang cowboy that was ever bornCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.It's cloudy in the west and lookin' like rainAnd my danged old slicker's in the wagon againCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.The wind began to blow and the rain began to fallAnd it looked like we were gonna lose 'em allCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.No chaps, no slickers and it's pouring rainI swear I'll never night herd againCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.I cripple on my horse and I don't know howRoping these long horn U-2 cowsCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.Well, I went to the boss to draw my rollAnd the boss had me fugured nine dollars in the holeCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.Well, me and the boss we had a little spatSo I hit him in the face with my ten gallon hatCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.The boss said to me, ''Well, I'll fire youNot only you but the whole darn crew.''Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.I'll sell my horse, I'll sell my saddleAnd you can drive all your long horn cattleCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea.Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yeaCome a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea...
