Strawberry Roan |
Let me tell you a tale and a good one I own of an old caballo a strawberry roan |
I was hangin' round town just a spendin' my time out of a job and not earnin' a |
dime |
When a stranger steps up and he says |
I suppose you’re a bronc rider by the looks of your clothes |
I says guess your right there’s none I can’t tame |
If its ridin' wild ponies that my middle name |
Oh that strawberry roan oh that strawberry roan |
He says he’s a cayuse that’s never been rode |
The guy that gets on him is bound to get throwed |
Throwed of that strawberry roan |
Out in the horse corral standin' alone is an old caballo, a strawberry roan |
Spavined old legs and small pigeon toes pair of pig eyes and a long Roman nose |
Little pin ears and they’re split at the tip a big fourty four brand was on his |
left hip |
So I puts on my spurs and I coils up my twine |
Says to that stranger that ten spot is mine |
Oh that strawberry roan oh that strawberry roan |
I’ll break him to saddle or break him my own |
I’ll ride him until he lies down with a grown |
Bring on your strawberry roan |
Then I puts on my blinds and it sure is a fight |
Next comes the saddle I screws her down tight |
Steps up aboard him and rises the blind get out the way boys he’s gonna unwind |
Shore is a broad walker he heaves a big sigh |
He only lacks wings for to be on the fly |
He’s the worse buckin' bronco I’ve seen on the range |
Turn on a nickle and give you some change |
Oh that strawberry roan oh that strawberry roan |
That sunfishin' critter’s worth leavin' alone |
There’s nary a buster from Texas to Nome |
Can ride that strawberry roan |
