Verse 1
D
A
D
G
Oh, bury me not, all alone, prairie,
D
A
D
oh, oh, boy, whoa, whoa.
A
D
Hey Tex, what you stopping for?
A
Well, I'll tell you, John,
D
A
we've been riding my horse double
D
for three days and three nights.
Don't you think he might
A
be getting tired?
D
Why, sure.
A
Let's get off his back and
give him a rest.
Exactly what I had in mind.
D
You get off first.
A
D
Why don't you get off first?
I said get off.
Em
Okay, I'll get off. Fine.
How do I get down?
G
Well, it's simple.
D
You're in the back.
Slide down.
A
D
You mean slide down over his...
A
D
Yes, slide down over his tail.
Sure is a long ways down.
G
D
That's not as far as it looks.
Now go ahead.
A
I'm afraid he'll kick me.
D
My horse don't kick.
But he ain't my horse.
A
D
He might kick a stranger.
A
Oh, all right then.
D
Get out on the side. Yeah.
A
D
Now, which side?
A
D
It don't make no difference.
A
Any difference?
D
A
No, you get off of my horse.
D
Well, I can't get my foot over your head.
A
D
Why don't you go first?
Oh, all right.
Em
I will go first. Good idea.
Now, duck your head
D
G
so I can swing my right foot over.
D
A
Look out, you're spurring me.
D
Oh, excuse me.
A
D
Now, when I bring my right
A
foot over this time,
D
G
you bring your left foot around this way.
D
A
You got it? I got you.
D
All together now, let's go.
A
Over the river.
D
A
D
Over we go. There, there.
A
Hey look, I'm in the saddle now.
D
I believe you're right.
A
And that leaves me back here.
D
A
But we ain't off yet. Yeah,
D
so you tell me.
Saddle feels good, let's stay here.
A
Will you get off of my horse?
D
You said you was gonna
get off first.
Em
Never mind what I said.
Slide down over his head and get bit.
G
D
A
He don't bite, he don't kick, he don't...
D
He does too.
A
Now, you're back there now.
D
A
You slide down. I can't.
D
G
My spurs are caught in the stirrers.
Oh.
D
A
Well, I'll reach down there
and unhook them.
D
Now, you do that.
A
D
Come here, spurs.
Don't kick.
Text me still.
A
D
Now, look what you did.
What now?
My gloves are caught in your spur.
A
D
Take your gloves off.
What?
A
And let my hands freeze?
D
A
Well, unhook my other
D
spur with your feet.
Well, I'm trying that already.
A
Where are they?
D
A little more to your right.
Careful now, careful.
Em
Now what's wrong here?
You've got your spurs
D
G
D
caught in my spurs,
A
D
A
and my spurs are caught in the stirrups.
Yeah.
D
G
I sure hope Gene Autry never
D
hears about this.
G
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
D
What's the matter?
A
Well, your horse is kicking.
D
A
He just wants us to get off his back.
D
A
Well, he's got his foot caught in the stirrup,
too.
D
A
That don't beat all.
D
A
Hey, Tex. Yes, John?
D
We'll have to get off now.
Why do you say that?
A
We'll figure it out if the
D
horse is trying to get home.
A
D
A
We'll have to will you shut up
D
Hand me that saddlebag.
Em
What for there's some dried biscuits
and jerky in there
G
D
It's like we're stuck here for the night.
A
D
I don't mind this saddle
feels better than that rumble seat
G
Hey Tex, yes, good night.
D
A
D
Good night
