Текст песни The Old Chisholm Trail (Tex Ritter) с переводом

Come along, boys, and listen to my tale

Tell you of my troubles on the old Chisholm Trail

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay

On a ten-dollar horse and a forty dollar saddle

I’m a going to punch in Texas cattle

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay

I’m up in the morning before daylight

Before I sleep the moon shines bright

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay.

Oh, it’s bacon and beans most every day

We’ll soon be eating this prairie hay

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay

With my seat in the saddle and my hand on the horn

I’m the best cowpuncher that ever was born

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay

No chaps, no slicker, and it’s pourin' down rain

I swear I’ll never night herd again

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay

A stray in the herd and the boss said, 'Kill it'

So I shot it in the rump with the handle of a skillet

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay

I went to the boss to draw my roll

And he had me figured out, nine dollars in the hole

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay

Me and my boss we had a little spat

So I hit him in the face with my ten gallon hat

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay

I’m going to sell my horse, going to sell my saddle

'Cause I’m tired of punching these Longhorn cattle

Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay

With my knees in the saddle and seat in the sky

I’ll quit punchin' cows in the sweet by and by Come a ti yi yippy, come a tee yi yay, ti yi yippy yi yay
