Let me tell you buddy, there's a faster gun

Coming over yonder when tomorrow comes

Let me tell you buddy, and it won't be long
C G C
Till you find yourself singing your last cowboy song

Yippie-ki-yi-yay, when the round up ends

Yippie-ki-yi-yay, and the camp fire dims
C C7 F
Yippie-ki-yi-yay, he shouts and he sings

When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings

When they wrap my body in the bindling sheet

And they take my six irons and pull the boots from my feet

Yippie-ki-yi-yay, when the round up ends

Yippie-ki-yi-yay, and the camp fire dims

Yippie-ki-yi-yay, he shouts and he sings

When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings

Yippie-ki-yi-yay, i'm glory bound

No more jingle jangle, I'll lay my guns down

Yippie-ki-yi-aye, he shouts and he sings

When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings

When a cowboy trades his spurs for wings
