Intro 1
(C major)
Verse 1
(C major) Little Joe the wrangler
he'll (F major) wrangle never more (C major)
His days with the remuda they're all done (G major)
It was (C major) long about last April
he (F major) rode into our camp (C major)
Just a little Texas stray (G major) and all (C major) alone
It was (F major) long late in the evening
when he (C major) rode into our camp
On a little old brown pony he called (G major) Shaw
In his (C major) brogan shoes and coveralls
a (F major) harder lookin' kid (C major)
You never in you (G major) life have
seen be (C major) fore

Verse 2
(C major) His saddle was a Sother kack
(F major) built many years ago (C major)
An OK spur on one foot idly hung (G major)
With his bed (C major) roll in a cotton sack
was (F major) loosely tied behind (C major)
And a canteen from the saddle (G major)
horn he'd slung (C major)
Said he (F major) had to leave his home because
his (C major) paw had married twice
His new maw beat him every day or two (G major)
So he saddled (C major) up old Shaw one night
and (F major) lit a shuck this way (C major)
Thought he'd try and paddle
now (G major) his own ca (C major) noe
Verse 3
Said he'd try (C major) to do the best he could if
we'd (F major) only give him work (C major)
Though he didn't know
straight up about a cow (G major)
So the (C major) boss he cut him out a mount
and (F major) kinda put him on (C major)
And we knew he liked our
(G major) little stray some (C major) how
Well he taught (F major) him how to heard the horses
and (C major) learned to know 'em all
And to get 'em in
by daylight if he could (G major)
And to (C major) follow the chuck wagon
and to (F major) always hitch the team (C major)
And to help the (G major) carsonaro rustle
(C major) wood
Verse 4
We had driven to Red River and the (F major)
weather it was fine (C major)
We were camped down
on the south side of the bend (G major)
When a (C major) Norther started blowin'
we called (F major) the extra guard (C major)
Cause it took all hands to
(G major) hold the cattle in (C major)
Now (F major) little Joe the wrangler was
called (C major) out like the rest
Barely had the kid got to the heard (G major)
When the (C major) cattle they stampeded
like a (F major) hailstorm on they flew (C major)
With all of us a rid (G major) in' for the (C major) lead
Verse 5
(C major) Between the streaks of lightnin'
we could see (F major) a horse ahead (C major)
It was little Joe the wrangler in the lead (G major)
He was (C major) riding old Blue Rocket with
a slick (F major) er o'er his head (C major)
And he's trying to check the
lead (G major) ers in their speed. (C major)
We (F major) fi nally got'em millin' and they
sort (C major) of quieted down
The extra guard back to
the camp did (G major) go
(C major) But one of them was missing and we
(F major) all knew at a glance (C major)
Twas our little Texas
strayboy wrangler (G major) (C major) Joe
Verse 6
We found (C major) him there at sun up where
(F major) old Blue Rocket fell (C major)
In some washout twenty feet below (G major)
(C major) Beneath his horse smashed to
(F major) a pulphis spur had rung the knell (C major)
For our little Texas stray
(G major) bos wrangler Joe (C major)
Little Joe the wrangler he'll
(F major) wrangle never more (C major)
His days with the remuda they're all (G major) done
It was (C major) long about last April
he (F major) rode into our camp (C major)
Just a little Texas stray (G major) and all alone (F major)
