Foot in the stirrup and my hand on the horn
I'm the best darn cowboy ever was born
[Chorus:]
Singing ki yi yippee yippee yi yippeo
Singing ki yi yippee yippee yay
Well, I started up the trail October twenty-third
Started up the trail with a 2-U herd
[Chorus]
Up every morning before daylight
And before I sleep the moon shines bright
[Chorus]
With a ten dollar horse and a forty dollar saddle
I'm going down to Texas for to punch them cattle
[Chorus]
Well old Ben Bolt was a fine old boss
And he went to see his gal on a sore-back hoss
[Chorus]
There's a stray in the herd and boss said kill it
So I shot him in the rump with the handle of a skillet
[Chorus]
And I went to the boss to draw my roll
And he had me figured out nine dollars in the hole
[Chorus]
Ropin' and a-tyin' and a-brandin' all day
I'm a-working mighty hard for a-mighty little pay
[Chorus]
Well I went to the boss and we had a little chat
And I hit him in the face with my old slouch hat
[Chorus]
With my foot in the stirrup and my hand on the horn
I'm the best danged cowboy ever was born
[Chorus]
Well I'm gonna get married just as quick as I can
And I won't punch cattle for no darn man
[Chorus]
Woody Guthrie (1912-1967) was an American singer-songwriter, musician, and activist widely considered a pioneer of modern American folk music. Born in Okemah, Oklahoma, Guthrie spent his childhood during the Great Depression, an experience that profoundly influenced his music. His songs often addressed social issues such as poverty, injustice, and labor, becoming a voice for workers and the oppressed. ?? Guthrie was a fervent supporter of the American Communist Party and used his music to promote socialist causes. His influence on American folk music is immense, inspiring generations of artists like Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and Bruce Springsteen. Some of his most famous songs include 'This Land Is Your Land', 'Blowin' in the Wind' (though this was made famous by Bob Dylan) and 'Deportee (Plane Wreck at Los Gatos)'
