I'm An Old Cowhand Lyrics - Triple Feature - Harry Connick, Jr.

Oh, step aside, y'all ornery tender feet 

'Cause I'm about to sing my song 

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande 

But my legs ain't bowed and my cheeks ain't tan 

Well I'm a cowboy who never saw a cow 

Never roped a steer 'cause I don't know how 

And I sure ain't fixin' to startin' now 

Yippee-i-o-ki-ay, hey yippee-i-o-ki-ay 

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande 

And I learned to ride before I learned to stand 

Well I'm a ridin' fool who is up to date 

I know every trail in the Lone Star State 

'Cause I ride the range in a Ford V-8 

Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, hey yippee-i-o-ki-ay 

Look out, I'm gonna show y'all how to ride now 

Here we go 

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande 

And I come to town just to hear the band 

I know all the songs that the cowboys know 

'Bout the big corral where the dogies go 

'Cause I learned them all on the radio 

Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, yeah yippee-i-o-ki-ay 

Now my story's almost done, so listen up! 

You ain't got much longer now 

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande 

Where the west is wild round the borderland 

Where the buffalo roam around the zoo 

And the Indians make you a rug or two 

And the old Bar X is the Barbecue 

Oh, yippee-i-o-ki-ay, hey yippee-i-o-ki-ay 

Hey yippee-i-o-ki-ay 

I'm just an old cowhand
