Historical Folk - THE LONE STAR TRAIL lyrics

I'm a rowdy cowboy just off the stormy plains, My trade is girting saddles and pulling bridle reins. Oh, I can tip the la**o, it is with graceful ease; I rope a streak of lightning, and ride it where I please. My bosses they all like me, they say I am hard to beat; I give them the bold standoff, you bet I have got the cheek. I always work for wages, my pay I get in gold; I am bound to follow the longhorn steer until I am too old. Ci yi yip yip yip pe ya. I am a Texas cowboy and I do ride the range;
