Verse 1
Yippee!
D
A
D
A
Ficus Bill was quite a cowboy
D
down in Texas
A
D
And the western su perman to say the least
G
He was the roughest, toughest critter
D
Never known to be a quitter
A
D
Cause he never had no fear of man or beast
G
D
So yippee -aye -aye, yippee -aye -oh
For the toughest critter
A
D
west of the Alamo
Once he roped the raging cyclone
A
D
out of nowhere,
then he straddled it and
A
D
settled down with ease.
G
And while that cyclone
bucked and flitted,
D
Pecos rolled a smoke and lit it,
and he tamed that ornery
A
D
wind down to a breeze.
G
D
A
So yippee -aye -aye, yippee -aye -oh
D
Once there was a drought
A
D
that spread all over Texas
A
D
So to sunny California he did go
G
And though the gag is kinda corny
D
Bm
D
He brought rain from California
A
That's the way we got the Gulf of Mexico
D
G
D
So yippee -aye -aye, yippee -aye -oh
For the toughest critter
A
D
G
west of the Alamo.
Now once a band of rustlers
C
stole a herd of chattel.
G
But they didn't know the herd they
C
stole was bills.
F
And when he caught
them crooked billings,
C
Pecos knocked out all their fillings.
G
That's the reason why there's
gold in them there hills.
C
F
So yippee -aye -aye,
C
yippee -aye -oh,
For the toughest critter
G
C
west of the Alamo.
G
Cm
Oh, oh, oh, Fakers lost his way
G

While traveling on the desert
G
It was 90 miles across the
Bb
Cm
burning sand
G
Fm
F
He knew he'd never reach
Fm
F
C
the border
G
Cm
If he didn't get some water
G
C
So he got a stick and
G
C
dug the Rio Grande
F

By Leola Leola
G
Leola Leola
C
G
While a tribe of painted Indians
did a war dance
Pecos started shootin' up their little game
He gave them red skin
such a shake -up
that they jumped out of their make -up,
that's the way the painted
Cm
C
desert got its name
F
C
So yippee -aye -aye yippee -aye -oh
Her the toughest critter
G
C
west of the Isle of Moe.
G
While reclining on a
C
cloud high over Texas,
with his guns he made the
G
C
stars evaporate.
F
Then Pecos saw them stars declining,
C
so he left one brightly shining
G
as the emblem of the Lone Star,
C
Texas State.
F
So yippee -aye -aye -aye,
C
yippee -aye -oh,
G
as the emblem of the Lone Star,
Abdim
G
C
Texas State.
