Oh, come along, boys, listen to my tale
I'll tell you all my troubles on the ol' Chisholm trail
Come a-tie, yippy-yippy-yay, yippy-yay
Come a-tie, yippy-yippy-yay
Woke up one morning on the old Chisholm trail
A rope in my hand and a cow by the tail
Come a-tie, yippy-yippy-yay, yippy-yay
Tie, yippy-yippy-yay
It's cloudy in the West, a-lookin' like rain
My darned old slicker's in the wagon again
Come a-tie, yippy-yippy-yay, yippy-yay
Come a-tie, yippy-yippy-yay
With my knees in the saddle and the seat in the sky
I quit punching cows and the sweet bye and bye
Come a-tie, yippy-yippy-yay, yippy-yay
Tie, yippy-yippy-yay
