I’m an Old Cow Hand, from the Rio Grande.
And my legs ain’t bowed, and my cheeks ain’t tan.

Ethel: I’m a cowboy who never saw a cow.
Never roped a steer ‘cause I don’t know how.
Lucy: And we sure ain’t fixin’ to find out now.

Yippie yi yo kayah, a ha!
Yippie yi yo kayah, e he!

I’m an Old Cow Hand, from the Rio Grande.
And I learned to ride, ‘fore I learned to stand.

Ethel: I’m a ridin’ fool who is up to date.
I know every road in the Lone Star State.
Lucy: ‘Cause the roads I range in a Ford V-8.

Yippie yi yo kayah
Yippie yi yo kayah

I know all the songs that the cowboys know,
‘Bout that big corral where the doggies go.
‘Cause I learned them all on the radio.

Yippie yi yo kayah
Yippie yi yo kayah
