THE BUCKSKIN LADY
by Bob Frank performed by Chris LeDoux
STRUM CNow, I?ve got a pony, the Ffastest thing aGround,
And of Call the girls I?ve known she?s the Ftruest Gone I?ve Cfound.
Well, she?ll Fcut ?em and she?ll head ?em just the Cway you want ?em
turned,
And if you Gdrop your loop around ?em, she can Cmake a grass rope hum,
And any Ftime you got a rodeo, and CI?ve got the entry fee,
You can Gbet your boots my Fgal and I will Ccome.
CHORUS
CWhoopee-ti-d-idi-ido on the Fplains of ColoGrado
That young Cpony was Fborn to work the Gtrail.
Some old CIdaho rawhider was the Ffirst one tried to Gride her,
Bronco Cbuster, wild horse Frustler, well she Gflipped him off like a
turkey feather duster.
STRUM CNow, some folks like a Cadillac with Fpower brakes and Gair,
Just Cgive me a Hamlee saddle and my Flittle Gbuckskin Cmare.
CWell, I Frode her up a mountain when we Cmade that summer drive,
And I Gtook her to Wyomin? for a Crodeo or two,
At old CheyFenne and Saratoga, we Croped them little dogies,
She the Gbest ole gal this Fcowboy ever Cknew.
STRUM CWhen she gets to old to rodeo too Fold to ride the Grange,
I?ll Ctake the Buckskin Lady out acFross the Gopen Cplains.
CCause she?s Fjust an ole cow pony and I Cknow she?d go plum crazy
If she Ghad to stand unsaddled around the Cbarn the whole day through
I?ll just Fturn her loose to ramble underCneath them Rocky Mountains
And Gtell ?em that her Fworkin? days are Cthrough.
CHORUS
CWhoopee-ti-d-idi-ido on the Fplains of ColoGrado,
That?s my Fpony sir and I Gsay she ain?t for Csale.
