歌曲 | The Cowboys’ Christmas Ball |
歌手 | The Killers |
专辑 | (RED) Christmas |
Way out in | |
Old Nevada, where the | |
Truckee's waters flow, | |
Where the cattle are "a-browzin'," an' the | |
Spanish ponies grow; | |
Where the | |
Northers "come a-whistlin'" from beyond the | |
Neutral Strip; | |
And the prairie dogs are sneezin', as if they had "The Grip"; | |
Where the cayotes come a-howlin' 'round the ranches after dark, | |
And the bluebirds are a-singin' to the lovely "meadow lark"; | |
Where the bighorns are a-grazin' and the lonely plovers call— | |
It was there that | |
I attended "The Cowboys' Christmas Ball."(whoo!) | |
The boys had left the ranches and come to town in piles; | |
The ladies—"kinda scatterin'"—had gathered in for miles.. | |
The room was togged out gorgeous-with mistletoe and shawls, | |
And candles flickered frescoes, around the airy walls. | |
The women folk looked lovely-the boys looked kinda treed, | |
Till the leader got to yellin': "Hey! fellers, let's stampede," | |
And the music started sighin', an' awailin' through the hall | |
As a kind of introduction to "The Cowboys' Christmas Ball." | |
Their leader was a feller that came from | |
Swenson's ranch, | |
They called him "Windy Billy," from "little Deadman's Branch." | |
His rig was "kinda careless," big spurs and high-heeled boots; | |
He had the reputation that come when "a fellers shoots." | |
His voice was like a bugle upon a mountainous height; | |
His feet were animated an' a mighty, movin' sight, | |
When he commenced to hollerin', "Now, fellers stake your pen!" | |
Lock horns with all them heifers, an' russle 'em like men."Saloot yer lovely critters; now swing an' let 'em go," | |
Climb the grape vine 'round 'em—all hands do-ce-do!"You Mavericks, join the round-up- Just skip her waterfall," | |
Huh! It was gettin' happy, | |
The Cowboys' | |
Christmas | |
BallDon't tell me 'bout cotillions, or germans. | |
No sire'ee! | |
That whirl at | |
Carson City just takes the cake with me. | |
I'm sick of lazy shufflin's, of them | |
I've had my fill, | |
Just Give me a frontier break-down, backed up by | |
Wild Ol' Bill. | |
McAllister ain't nowhere, when | |
Windy leads the show, | |
I've seen 'em both in harness, and so | |
I sorta know— | |
Oh, Bill, | |
I sha'n't forget ya, and | |
I'll oftentimes recall, | |
That lively gaited sworray—"The Cowboys' Christmas Ball." | |
