lyrics

In the state of old Montana I spent many happy days
Riding o’er the ranges , roundin’ up the strays
Then one day there came a stranger
This wild tale he told to me
Said we could make a fortune
With a cowboy melody
CHORUS:
Old Montana put your horse away
Put him in the pasture and give him lots of hay
Folks down in the city pay money just to see
The cowboys who can yippee and sing a melody
No more herdin’ cattle, your round up days are done
Put away your lariat, we’re headed for some fun
Bring along your guitar, we’ll practice night and day
Old Montana Cowboy, put your horse away
SOLOS
So we practice on a ditty that we thought was sure to please
Headed for the city to live the life of ease
Yes, we dreamed of bright lights shining and the fortune we would win
We dreamed of being famous with the money rollin’ in.

In a city tavern, had a drink or two
When we sang our ditty, the first thing that I knew
Bottles started flyin, amidst the roar and din
I stopped one with my guitar and took one on the chin
Then the riot started I heard the plaster fall
As I grabbed the chandelier and tore it from the wall
Old Montana Cowboy, I heard the old judge say,
“Six month for these cowboys
Yippee Yo Kai yea”
