deserve attention.  But song does have words and they savor
the West.  Yee-haw!

                        "I ride an old Paint"


        G
1.I     ride on old Paint, I lead an old Dan.  I'm
2.      Old bill Jones had two daughters and a song;
3.Oh,   when I die, take my saddle from the wall, Put it

        D7                      G
        off the Mantan' for to throw the hoolihan.  They
        One went to Denver,& the other went wrong.  His
        on my pony and          lead him from the stall.  Tie my

        D7                      G
        feed in the coulees,they water in the draw;  Their

        tails are all matted, their             backs are all   raw.(Chorus)
        sings this song from                  morning till      night:(Chorus)
        ride the prairies we                    love the        best.(Chorus)

CHORUS-

        D7                                              G
Ride a- round, little dogies,                   ride a- round slow, For the
