Artist/Band: Edwards Don Tabs
Song: Strawberry Roan And Little Tab
Strawberry Roan and Little Joe 4/4 Don Edwards;
(C) Pushin horns weren't easy, like (F) the movies say it (C) was
I don't remember dancehall girls, nor (G) hotel rooms for us
You (C) worked hot tired and nasty, rode (F) your ponies head to (C) low
And all them nights you (G) couldn't sleep, (F) cause it was to damn'd (C)
cold
And we sang, Strawberry (G) roan and little (C) Joe
(C) Like the time we hit the river and (F) the rain begun to (C) fall
The water risin so damn fast, we (G) thought it drowned us all
Now (C) we lost a lot of steers that day and (F) four or five good (C)
mounts
But when all the boys rode (G) into camp, we (F) knew thats what (C) counts
And we sang, Whoopie ti yi (G) ya and Amazing (C) Grace
(C) For the night they broke behind us and (F) they took us by (C) surprise
I whistled out to Bonner, I saw (G) the terror in his eyes
And he (C) rode for all his horse would ride, (F) I know he done his (C)
best
But he crossed over (G) Jordon, ridin (F) Dunnie to his (C) death
And we sang, bringin in the (G) sheathes and the Rugged (C) cross
(C) So when you see the cowboy, he's (F) not ragged by his (C) choice
He never meant to bow them legs, nor put (G) that gravel in his voice
He's just (C) chasin what he really loves, whats (F) burnin in his (C) soul
Wishin to hell (G) that he'd been born (F) a hundred years (C) ago
Still singin Strawberry (G) roan and little (C) Joe
Still singin Strawberry (G)roan............ and little (C) Joe
