paroles de chanson Buffalo Skinners - Woody Guthrie
Come
all
you
old
time
cowboys,
And
listen
to
my
song,
Please
do
not
grow
weary,
I'll
not
detain
you
long.
Concerning
some
wild
cowboys,
Who
did
agree
to
go,
Spend
the
summer
pleasant,
On
the
trail
of
the
Buffalo.
I
found
myself
in
Griffin,
In
the
spring
of
'83,
When
a
well
known
famous
drover,
Came
walking
up
to
me.
Said,
"How
do
you
do,
young
fellow,
Well
how
would
you
like
to
go,
And
spend
the
summer
pleasant,
On
the
trail
of
the
Buffalo?"
Well
I
being
out
of
work
right
then,
To
the
drover
I
did
say,
"Going
out
on
the
Buffalo
Road,
Depends
on
the
pay.
If
you
will
pay
good
wages,
And
transportation
to
and
fro,
I
think
I
might
go
with
you,
On
the
hunt
of
the
Buffalo."
"Of
course
I'll
pay
good
wages,
And
transportation
too,
If
you
will
agree
to
work
for
me,
Until
the
season's
through."
But
if
you
do
get
homesick,
And
try
to
run
away,
You
will
starve
to
death,
Out
on
the
trail
and
also
lose
your
pay."
Well
with
all
his
flattering
talking,
He
signed
up
quite
a
train,
Some
10
or
12
in
number,
Some
able
bodied
men.
The
trip
it
was
a
pleasant
one,
As
we
hit
the
westward
road,
Until
we
crossed
old
Boggy
Creek,
In
old
New
Mexico.
There
our
pleasures
ended,
And
our
troubles
began.
A
lightening
storm
hit
us,
And
made
the
cattle
run.
Got
all
full
of
stickers,
From
the
cactus
that
did
not
grow,
And
the
outlaws
watching,
To
pick
us
off
in
the
hills
of
Mexico.
Well
our
working
season
ended,
And
the
drover
would
not
pay,
If
you
had
not
drunk
too
much,
You
are
all
in
debt
to
me.
But
the
cowboys
never
had
heard,
Such
a
thing
as
a
bankrupt
law,
So
we
left
that
drover's
bones
to
bleach,
On
the
Plains
of
the
Buffalo.
