Riding along, singing a cowboy song. Riding along, singing a song. O-lee O-lee, O-lee O-lay. O-lee O-lay. My boots are made of leather, And I wear a cowboy hat. I've got a holster tied down And I have a lariat. I climb into the saddle, And I start out on the trail. O-lee O-lay. O-lee O-lee, O-lee O-lay. O-lee O-lay. My pony is a beauty. His name is Buckaroo. Whatever I may ask him, He will know just what to do. He'll canter, oh so slowly, Or he'll gallop like the wind. O-lee O-lay. O-lee O-lee, O-lee O-lay. O-lee O-lay We have to guard the cattle Ev'ry minute of the day, And be most awfully careful Not to let them run away. So 'round and 'round, Up in the air, I twist my lariat. O-lee O-lay. O-lee O-lee, O-lee O-lay. O-lee O-lay We'll ride across the prairie Till we see the setting sun, Then come back to the bunkhouse After all our work is done. To beefsteak for my supper, And some hay for Buckaroo. O-lee O-lay. O-lee O-lee, O-lee O-lay. O-lee O-lay
