Up in the morning at the break of day
|
You'll hear a big bearded cowboy at the chuck wagon say
|
"Gather 'round boys, the coffee's hot on the fire
|
There's a full day of branding, we're heating the iron
|
I want to smell that scorched hair and burning hide
|
The horses have grain boys, they're ready to ride
|
Roll up your bed rolls and jump in your boots
|
Daylight is a-wastin', boys, it's out of the shoots"
|
|
Come on and ride, cowboy, ride
|
Roll up your riatas and pull your sombreros down tight
|
We're going to ride, ride, ride where the trail will wind
|
You'd better drive, drive, drive or we'll leave you behind
|
Come on and ride, ride, ride, cowboy, ride
|
|
It's a beautiful morning and you've had a good rest
|
You ropers get ready to be at your best
|
Saddle them ponies and tighten the cinch (Yahoo!)
|
Pull on your gloves and take your hat off the fence
|
We'll take the cattle to market, and after they're sold
|
You can all let your hair down, get lazy or bold
|
Riding to town to find a lady or two
|
She'll take you by the arms and shake the dust off your boots
|
|
Come on and ride, cowboy, ride
|
Roll up your riatas and pull your sombreros down tight
|
We're going to ride, ride, ride where the trail will wind
|
You'd better drive, drive, drive or we'll leave you behind
|
Come on and ride, ride, ride, cowboy, ride
|
|
Come on and ride, cowboy, ride
