Ragtime Cowboy Joe

How he sings

Raggy music to his cattle
As he swings

Back and forward in his saddle
On a horse, a pretty good horse
Syncopated gaited
With such a funny meter
To the roar of his repeater
How they run

When they hear the fella's gun
Because the western folks all know
He's a high-falootin', shootin' the chute
Son of a gun from Arizona
