When a Cowboy Trades His Spurs for Wings |
Let me tell you, buddy |
There's a faster gun |
Coming over yonder |
When tomorrow comes |
Let me tell you, buddy |
And it won't be long |
Till you find yourself singing |
Your last cowboy song |
Yippee-ki-iy-ay |
When the round-up ends |
Yippee-ki-iy-ay |
And the campfire dims |
Yippee-ki-iy-ay |
He shouts and he sings |
When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings |
When they wrap my body |
In the thin linen sheet |
And they take my six irons |
Pull the boots from my feet |
Unsaddle my pony |
She'll be itching to roam |
I'll be halfway to heaven |
Under horsepower of my own |
Yippee-ki-iy-ay |
When the round-up ends |
Yippee-ki-iy-ay |
And the campfire dims |
Yippee-ki-iy-ay |
He shouts and he sings |
When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings |
Yippee-ki-iy-ay |
I'm glory-bound |
No more jingle jangle |
I lay my guns down |
Yippee-ki-iy-ay |
He shouts and he sings |
When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings |
