The Strawberry Roan - Moe Bandy/Vaughn Monroe

I was hanging round town just spending my time

Out of a job and not earning a dime

Tellers steps up and he said I suppose

You're a bronc rider from the looks of your clothes

He figures me right I'm a good one I claim

Do you happen to have any bad ones to tame

He said he's got one a bad one to buck

At throwing good riders he's had lots of luck

I got all heat up and I asked what he pays

To ride this old nag for a couple of days

He offered me ten and I said I'm your man

A bronc never leave that I couldn't fan

He said get your saddle I'll give you a chance

And his buckboard we hop said he drives to the ranch

A standing till morning and ride after chuck

I stepped out to see if this outlaw in bound

Down in the horse parrow standin' alone

Is an old cavallo a strawberry roan

His legs were all spattered he's got pigeon toes

Little pig eyes and a big roman nose

Little pin ears that touch at the tip

A big 44 brand was on his left hip

U necked and old with a long lower jaw

I could see with one eye he's a regular outlaw

I gets the blind on him and it sure he's a fright

Next comes the saddle and I spruce it down tight

Then I steps on him and I raise it the blinds

Get out of the way boys he's goin' to unwind

He sure frog walker he heaved a big sigh

He only lacks wings for to be on the fly

Turned his old belly right up to the sun

He sure is a sun fishing son of a gun

He's about the worst bucker I've seen on the range

He'll turn on a nickel and give you some change

It turned of pours and it goes up on hand

Gives me a spinning up there in the sky

I turned over twice and I comes back to earth

A lights near to cussing the day of his birth

And know there ponies that I cannot ride

There's some of them live they haven't all died

I'll bet all my money the man ain't alive

That would stay with strawberry when he makes his high dive
