You woDrked hot and tired and nasty rode you pony's head too low
There weA7re all the nights you Gcouldn't sleep 'cause it was too damn cold

Like the time we hit the river and the rains began to fall
And the water was rising so damn fast we thought it'd drown us all
We lost a lot of steers that day and four or five good mounts
But when all the boys rode into camp we knew that's what counts
And we sang, Yippie Ti Yi Yay and Amazing Grace
Bm F#m G
Or the night the Dbroke behind us and then they took us by surprise

Verse 3
So when you see that cowboy he's not ragged by his choice
He never meant to bow them legs or put that gravel in his voice
He's just chasin' what he really loves and what's burning in his soul

Still singin', Strawberry Roan and Little Joe
Outro: D
