Little Joe the [G] Wrangler will never [D] wrangle more His days of [Bm] Theremouta [A] they are done
[D] Was a year ago last April [G] that he joined the [D] outfit here A little [A] Texas strayin' [D] all alone
[G] Said he'd try to do the best he [D] could if we'd only give him work Though he didn't [Bm] know straight up [A] about a cow
So [D] the boss cut him out of [G] mouth and kinda [D] put him on For it's sorta [A] like that little stray [D] somehow
We'd driven to Red River [G] and the weather [D] had been fine We were camped out [Bm] on the [A] Santa Ben
[D] When a night come and blow it [G] and we doubled [D] up our guard For it took us [A] hands to hold the [D] cattle in
[G] Little Joe the Wrangler [D] was caught up with the best And scarcely [Bm] had the kid got [A] to the herd
[D]
When the cattle they stampeded [G] like a hailstorm [D] long before And all of us [A] were ridin' for [D] the lead
[Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
Strain streaks of lightning we could see [Ab] a horse bore out [Eb] of hip But little Joe [Cm] the Wrangler in [Bb] relief
He [Eb] was ridin' on his rocket [Ab] with his cigar above [Eb] his hip Tryin' to check [Bb] the leaders in [Eb] the street
[Ab] At last we got him in and [Eb] kinda quieted down And the extra guard [Cm] back to the camp [Bb] is gone
[Eb] One of them was missin' and [Ab] we all knew at a [Eb] glance Was our little Texas [Bb] stray poor [Eb] Wrangler Joe
Next morning just at sunup [Ab] we found where [Eb] Rocket fell Down in a [Cm] washout twenty feet [Bb] below
[Eb] Beneath his horse smashed to a pulp [Ab] His spurs [Eb] has wrung the nail For our little [Bb] Texas stray poor [Eb] Wrangler Joe
[Ab] [Eb] For our little [Bb] Texas stray poor [Eb] Wrangler Joe
