Step aside you ornery Tenderfeet,
Let a big bad buckeroo pass.

I'm the toughest hombre you'll ever meet,
Though I may be the last.

Yes siree, we're a vanishing race,
No siree, can't last long.

Step aside you ornery Tenderfeet
While I sing my song.

I'm an old cowhand, from the Rio Grande,
But my legs ain't bowed and my cheeks ain't tanned,

I'm a cowboy who never saw a cow,
Never roped a steer 'cause I don't know how,
An I sho' ain't fixin' to start in now.

Yippy I O Ki Ay,
Yippy I O Ki Ay.

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande,
And I learned to ride 'fore I learned to stand,

I'm a ridin' fool who is up to date,
I know ev'ry trail in the Lone Star State,
'Cause I ride the range in a New Straight Eight.

Yippy I O Ki Ay,
Yippy I O Ki Ay.

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande,
And I come to town just to hear the band,

I know all the songs that the cowboys know,
'Bout the big corral where the doagies go,
'Cause I learned them all on the radio.

Yippy I O Ki Ay,
Yippy I O Ki Ay.

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande,
Where the West is wild 'round the Borderland,

Where the buffalo roam around the Zoo,
And the Indians make you a rug or two,
And the old Bar X is the BarBQ.

Yippy I O Ki Ay,
Yippy I O Ki Ay.

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande,
And I've done retired living on the land,

I spend all my time at the Hotel Bar,
With a gin and lime and a big cigar,
'Cos my old ranch hoss is a movie star.

Yippy I O Ki Ay,
Yippy I O Ki Ay.
