歌词
[Verse 1]
The ragged kid nobody wanted
Left alone to ramble wild
Long ago, he was abandoned
Nobody's child
[Verse 2]
Never smiles and never chatters
Never quarrels or complains
Grown as hard as the Sierras
And the Western Plains
[Verse 3]
Come a-cow, cow, yicky-yicky, yeah
A-come a-cow, cow, yicky-yicky, yeah
[Verse 4]
Learned to swing a broken bottle
Learned to use his fists and knife
In the bar rooms and bordellos
Of his life
[Verse 5]
He drifted down towards the border
The sky was dark but it did not rain
Came the meanest pistoleros
In the Western Plains
[Verse 6]
He fell in with these desperados
Thieves and killers, every one
Prizes hangin' from their saddles
With their guns
[Verse 7]
Come a-cow, cow, yicky-yicky, yeah
A-come a-cow, cow, yicky-yicky, yeah
[Verse 8]
The ragged kid nobody wanted
Left alone to ramble wild
Now he rides beside the Devil
Nobody's child
[Verse 9]
Come a-cow, cow, yicky-yicky, yeah
A-come a-cow, cow, yicky-yicky, yeah
