I'm An Old Cowhand (with Jimmy Dorsey )

I’m an old cowhand        from the Rio Grande          But my legs ain’t bowed      and my cheeks ain’t tanned;    I’m a cowboy who never saw a cow -- Never roped a steer ’cause I don’t know how And I sure ain’t fixin’ to start in now. Yippie - yi - yo - ki - yay   yippie - yi - yo - ki - yay. I’m an old cowhand       from the Rio Grande      And I learned to ride       ’fore I learned to stand;     I’m a ridin’ fool who is up to date -- I know every trail in the Lone Star state ’Cause I ride the range in a Ford V8. Yippie - yi - yo - ki - yay   yippie - yi - yo - ki - yay. I’m an old cowhand        from the Rio Grande     And I came to town       just to hear the band;      I know all the songs that the cowboys know ’Bout the big corral where the dogies go ’Cause I learned them all on the rad-ee-o Yippie - yi - yo - ki - yay   yippie - yi - yo - ki - yay
