Ragtime Cowboy Joe

They say he sings
Raggedy music to the cattle as he swings
Back and forward in his saddle on a horse
(a pretty good horse)

That is syncopated-gaited
And it's such a funny meter
To the roar of his repeater
How they run when the fella draws his gun
Because the western folks all know

He's a rootin'-tootin', high-falutin'
Son of a gun from Arizona
Ragtime cowboy / Talk about your cowboy
Ragtime cowboy Joe

Ragtime, ragtime cowboy
Ragtime, ragtime cowboy
Ragtime, ragtime cowboy Joe
(Repeat)
