Come along boys and listen to my tale
I'll tell you all my troubles on the ol' Chisholm Trail
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea
On a ten dollar horse and a forty dollar saddle
I started out punchin' them long horn cattle
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Ti yi youpy, youpy yea
Started up the trail October twenty-third
We started up the trail with the U-2 herd
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Ti yi youpy, youpy yea
Cloudy in the west and lookin' like rain
And my danged old slicker's in the wagon again
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Ti yi youpy, youpy yea
With my seat in the saddle and my hand on the horn
I'm the best dang cowboy that was ever born
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Ti yi youpy, youpy yea
It's bacon and beans most everyday
Soon we'll be eatin' that prairie hay
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Ti yi youpy, youpy yea
I'm up in the mornin' 'fore daylight
'Fore I sleep the moon shines bright
Ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea
Went to the boss to draw my roll
He figured me out nine dollars in the hole
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea
No chaps, no slickers and it's pouring rain
I swear by God I'll never night herd again
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Ti yi youpy, youpy yea
With my knees in the saddle and my seed in the sky
I'll quit punchin' cows in the sweet bye and bye
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Ti yi youpy, youpy yea
Come along boys and listen to my tale
I'll tell you all my troubles on the ol' Chisholm Trail
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea, youpy yea
Come a-ti yi youpy, youpy yea
