rate me

Oh, step aside, y'all ornery tenderfeet<br>Cause I'm about to sing my song<br>I'm an old cowhand from the rio grande<br>But my legs ain't bowed, and my cheeks ain't tan<br>Well I'm a cowboy who never saw a cow<br>Never roped a steer 'cause I don't know how<br>And I sure ain't fixin' to startin now<br>Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay<br><br>I'm an old cowhand from the rio grande<br>And I learned to ride before I learned to stand<br>Well I'm a ridin fool who is up to date<br>I know every trail in the lone star state<br>'cause I ride the range in a ford v-8<br>Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay<br><br>Look out, I'm gonna show y'all how to ride now<br>Here we go<br><br>I'm an old cowhand from the rio grande<br>And I come to town just to hear the band<br>I know all the songs that the cowboys know<br>'bout the big corral where the dogies go<br>'cause I learned them all on the radio<br>Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay<br><br>Now my story's almost done, so listen up!<br>You ain't got much longer now<br><br>I'm an old cowhand from the rio grande<br>Where the west is wild round the borderland<br>Where the buffalo roam around the zoo<br>And the indian make you a rug or two<br>And the old bar-x is the bar-be-cue<br>Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yippee-i-o-ki-ay<br><br>I'm just an old cowhand...
