Well it was down at Old Ranch Eagle where I first ran across
Am
That strange two wheel contraception that upset me in the dust
C
Am
C
Simply got up and throwed me romped around upon my head
G7
C
Shot straight up in lightning order so Ike the ranch boss said
Am
For his help from New York City out to San Francisco Bay
C
Am
C
He stopped by the ranch house to get himself a good square meal
G7
C
Never dreamt us boys would monkey with his gosh darn wheel
Am
I guess you found a limit to your bronco riding skill
C
Am
C
He said ol’ boy but you will find a different deal
G7
C
When you throw your chaparritas around that gosh darn wheel
Am
So I told him I would ride him for amusement of the chink
C
Am
C
I said if you don’t believe me just to get her by the snout
G7
C
Put a rope around her muzzle and to lead the critter out
Am
I pushed the gas to start her and she wasn’t very slow
C
Am
C
The grade was kinda sloping from the ranch house to the creek
G7
C
And I went-a tearing through there like a crazy lightning streak
Am
Put your spurs in her shoulder turn her muzzle up the hill
C
Am
C
Well I done as they requested but my plan it wouldn’t work
G7
C
When my spurs went in it’s shoulders my face went in the dirt
Am
Out in front of Old Ranch Eagle with my comrades gathered around
C
Am
C
They were putting peach tree poultices on my hide where it was ripped
G7
C
Some of the boys said Arizona you must have gotten whipped
Am
I can rope him I can ride him let him do his level best
C
Am
C
I can ride the toughest steer that ever wore a Texas brand
G7
C
And in any disagreement I can play a leading hand
C
Am
G7
