Lyrics

Down the canyon trail
With my pack, my shovel and a pail
Huntin' yellow metal I would go
With no one else along but Sidekick Joe
Good old Joe, oh, what a bug-a-rho
Straightest shootin' man I ever knew
Just a rang-a-tang a-cussin' bull
Ain't never seen the likes of Sidekick Joe
Then one evenin'
While the coyotes was howlin' in the dew
We struck yello
And we split it fifty-fifty 'tween the two
He was just my pal
Man ain't never had a better pal
Stole my horse, my gal and all my dough
Ain't never seen the likes of Sidekick Joe
Then one evenin'
While the coyotes were a-howlin' in the dew
Oh, we happened to strike yello
And we split it fifty-fifty 'twixt the two
Now, he was just my pal
Man ain't never had a better pal
Oh, oh, he stole your horse, your gal and all your dough
Mm-mm, ain't never seen the likes of Sidekick Joe
He was your Sidekick Joe
