[D]
So [B] this is a terribly sad song.
This song's gonna really put you under.
It's about a
kid who is being abused at home and runs off and [D] joins up with a bunch [G] of [Am]
cowboys
and is expected to do a grown-ups job right off the bat.
[D]
We'll see what it says.
How little Joe the Wrangler, [G] he'll wrangle [D] nevermore.
His [Bm] days with the
Bermuda [A] they are done.
[D] Was a year ago last April [G] when he joined our outfit [D] here.
Just [G] a little [A] Texas train [D] all alone.
[G] It is long late in the evening [Bm] when he
[D] rode [G] up to [D] our herd on a little [G] old [D] round pony [A] he called Sean.
[Bm] With [D] his broken
shoes and [G] overalls, a harder looking [D] kid.
Oh you're never in [A] your life [C#] that seen
[D] before.
His [G] saddle was [D] a southern cat [G] built many years [D] ago and an oak case
where on one [G] foot [A] I'd lay a hump.
[D] His heart roll in a cotton scythe [G] was loosely tied
[D] behind and a [G] canteen or [A] his saddle [B] horn [D] it slung.
[G] He said he'd had to leave his
home [D] and marry twice.
His new pa beat him every [G] day [A] or two.
[D] So he saddled up old
in a chaw one [G] night and lit a shut [D] this way.
Thought he'd [Em] try and paddle [A] now [Em] his [D] own canoe.
Hell he said he'd do the best he could [G] if we'd only give [D] him work.
Though he
didn't know straight up [G] about [A] a cow.
[D] So the boss he cut him out of bound [G] and he
kind of put him [D] on.
Or so to like [A] that and didn't [D] stray somehow.
[G] Well he taught him
how to hurt the string and learn to know [D] them all and round them up by [G] daybreak
if [A] he could.
[D] To follow the chuck wagon [G] and always hitch [D] the team and help [G] the
coast [A] in their [Em] own [D] rustle.
One day [G] beside [D] Red River all [G] the weather had been [D] fine.
We were [G] camped down [D] on the south [G] side [A] in a bend.
[Bm]
When [G] another [D] coming's blowing [G] and
we've doubled up [D] our guard.
The boy took [G] all [A] hands to [C#] hold the [D] cattle then.
[G] Now little Joe
the Wrangler [D] he was called out with the rest and scarcely had the [G] kid got [A] to the herd.
[D] When the cattle they stampeded like [G] hailstones round [D] they flew.
And [G] everyone
[A] was right [G] for [D] the lead.
[G] All between the streaks [D] of lightning we [G] could see a
horse [D] ahead.
It was little Joe the [G] Wrangler [A] in the lead.
[D] All riding old blue rocket with [G] his
slicker above [D] his head.
[G] Trying to [A] catch the [G] leaders in their [D] speed.
[G] Well we finally
got them milling and kind of quieted [D] down.
And the extra [D] guard back to the camp [A] did go.
[D] But one of them was missing [G] and we all knew at a [D] glance.
Was our little [G] Texas
[A] Trey [Em] poor [D] Wrangler Joe.
That [G] morning [D] just at sunup [G] we found where [D] a rocket fell.
In [G] a little
[D] washout [G] twenty feet [A] below.
[D] Beneath his horse mashed to a [G] paltry spurred rung.
And [D] now our little [G] Texas [A] Trey [Bm] poor [D] Wrangler Joe.
[G] Oh little Joe the Wrangler [D] he will
wrangle never more.
His days with the [G] Remuter [A] they are done.
[D] Was a year ago
last [G] April when he joined our [D] outfit here.
Just a [Bm] little Texas Trey and [D] all alone.
