[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] He was just a Texas cowhand, [Ab]
one that [Eb] knew his stuff.
[Ab] His eyes was [Eb] black, his face was tan, his hands were broad and rough.
Ay yippee oh holy, ay [Ab] yippee oh holy, ay [Eb]
yippee [Bb] oh holy.
[Eb] He was tough as an old buzz saw, [Ab] all the boys [Eb] stayed shy.
[Ab] For they all knew [Eb] his aim was true, [Ab] he'd shoot at the wink [Eb] of an eye.
One night in Les Springs Roundup, he [Ab] met with a [Eb] rustlers band.
As the [Ab] flames leaped [Eb] higher from his old campfire, [A] he fell with a gun [Eb] in his hand.
Ay yippee oh holy,
[Bb] [Eb] ay [Ab] yippee oh holy, ay [Eb] yippee oh holy.
Ay [Bb] yippee oh holy, ay yippee oh holy, [Eb] ay yippee oh holy.
He rolled out of bed the next morning, [Ab] we dug grave [Eb] in the sand.
[Ab] Where we found [Eb] stretched out on the ground, this [Bb] brave and lonely [Eb] cowhand.
We buried him on deep prairie, [Ab] wrapped in an old [Eb] cowhide.
[Ab] By the light of the moon [Eb] we wrote on his tomb, another [Bb]
cowhand's [Eb] last rite.
Ay yippee oh holy, ay yippee oh holy, [Ab] ay yippee oh holy.
[Bb] [Eb]
