《The Buffalo Skinners》歌词

[00:00:00] The Buffalo Skinners - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)

[00:00:04] 'Twas in the town o' Jacksboro in the spring o' seventy three

[00:00:11] A man by the name o' Crego come steppin' up to me

[00:00:18] Said how d'you do young fellers and how'd you like to go

[00:00:24] And spend one summer pleasantly on the range o' the buffalo

[00:00:32] It's me bein' out of employment to ol' Crego I did say

[00:00:38] This goin' out on the buffalo range depends upon the pay

[00:00:44] But if you'll pay good wages and transportation too

[00:00:50] I think sir I will go with you

[00:00:54] To the range o' the buffalo

[00:01:00] Well it's now we've crossed Pease river boys

[00:01:03] Our troubles they have begun

[00:01:09] First old stinker that I cut Christ how I cut my thumb

[00:01:16] While skinnin' the dog gone ol' buffalo

[00:01:19] Our lives they had no show

[00:01:22] For the Indians watched to pick us off while skinnin' the buffalo

[00:01:33] The season bein' near over ol' Crego he did say

[00:01:41] The crowd had been extravagant was in debt to him that day

[00:01:49] We coaxed him an' we argued but still it was no go

[00:01:58] We left his damned ol' bones to bleached

[00:02:00] On the range o' the buffalo

[00:02:06] It's now we've crossed pease river and homeward we are bound

[00:02:15] No more in that old fire country will ever we be found

[00:02:23] Go back to our wives and sweethearts tell others not to go

[00:02:32] For God's forsaken the buffalo range and the d**n ol' buffalo
