[E]
I was hanging around town [B] just spending my time
Out of a job, [E] not earning a dime
A fellow steps up and [A] he said, I suppose
[B] You're a brown fighter from the looks of your clothes
He figures [E] me right, [B] I'm a good one I claim
Do you happen to have any [E] bad ones to tame?
Said he's got one [A] of [B] Badner's, he's had [E] lots of love
I gets all hit up and I [B] ask what he pays
To ride this old nag [E] for a couple of days
He offered me ten, I [A] said I'm your man
[B] A bronc never lived that I couldn't fan
[E] He said, get your [B] saddle, I'll give you a chance
In his buckboard we hopped, Sonny [E] drives to the ranch
I stayed until [A] morning and right after [B] chuck
I stepped out to see if this outlaw [E] can buck
Down in the [B] horse corral standing alone
Is an old cavallo, a [E] strawberry roan
His legs are all spattered, [F#m] he's got [A] pigeon toes
[B] Little pig eyes and a big Roman [E] nose
Middle [B] pinions that touch at the tip
A big 44 brand was [E] on his left hip
You neck and all [A] with a long lower jaw
[B] I could see with one eye he's a regular [E] outlaw
I gets the blinds on [B] him and it sure is a pride
Next comes the saddle and [E] I screws it down tight
Then I steps on him and [A] I raises the blind
[B] Get out the way boys, he's gonna unwind
He [E] sure is a frog [B] walker, he heaves a big sigh
He only likes [E] wings for to be on the fly
He turns his old belly [A] right up to the sun
[B] He sure is a sun fishin' son of [E] a gun
He's about the worst [B] buckler I've seen on the range
He'll turn on a nickel [E] and give you some change
He hits on all [A] fours and [B] leaves me a-spinnin' up there in the sky
[E] I turns over twice and [B] I comes back to earth
I lights in to cussin' [E] the day of his birth
I know there are [A] ponies that I cannot [F#m] ride
[B] There's some of them [G#m] left, they're havin' all died
[E] I'll bet all my money [B] the man he lied
That I'll stay with old Strawberry when he makes his high [E] dive
I was hanging around town [B] just spending my time
Out of a job, [E] not earning a dime
A fellow steps up and [A] he said, I suppose
[B] You're a brown fighter from the looks of your clothes
