Asleep At The Wheel
"I'm An Old Cowhand" lyrics

I'm An Old Cowhand

Yippie yi yo kayah
Yippie yi yo kayah

I'm an old cowhand
From the Rio Grande
But my legs ain't bowed
Oh no, and my cheeks ain't tan
I'm a cowgirl
Who's never seen a cow
I've never roped a steer
Cause I don't know how
And I sure ain't fixing
To start in now
Yippie yi yo kayah
Yippie yi yo kayah

I'm an old cowhand
And I from the Rio Grande
And I learned to ride
Before I learned to stand
I am a riding fool
Who is up to date
I know every trail
In the Lone Star State
Cause I ride the range
In my Ford V-8
Yippie yi yo kayah
Yippie yi yo kayah

I am an old cowhand
And I am from the Rio Grande
And I come to town
Just to hear the band
Well, I know all the songs
That the cowboys know
About the big corral
Where the doggies go
Because I heard them all
On the radio
Yippie yi yo kayah
Yippie yi yo kayah
Yippie yi yo kayah
