I was snappin' out broncs at the Old Flyin' U   At forty a month a plum good buckaroo   Well, the boss comes around and he says, hey my lad   Well, you look pretty good ridin' horses that's bad      You see, I ain't got no more outlaws to break   But I'll buy you a ticket and I'll give you a stake   At ridin' them bad ones, well, you ain't slow   And you might do some good at the big rodeo      While they're puttin' the bull in the chute   I'm strappin' my spurs to the heels of my boots   I looks that bull over and to my surprise   Well, he's a foot and a half in between his two eyes      On top of his shoulders, he's got a big hump   [Incomprehensible]   I lands in his middle and I lets out a scream   He comes out with a beller and the rest is a dream      Well, he jumps to the left and he lands towards the right   But I ain't no green horn, I'm still sittin' tight   The dust starts to foggin' right out of his skin   He's a wavin' them horns right under my chin      At sunnin' his belly, he couldn't be beat   He's a showin' the buzzards the soles of his feet   He's a dippin' so low that my boots filled with dirt   He's a makin' a whip of the tail of my shirt      He's a snappin' the buttons right off of my clothes   He's a buckin' and a bawlin' and a blowin' his nose   The crowd starts to cheerin' both me and that bull   Well, he needed no help but I had my hands full      Then he goes to fence rowin' and weavin' behind   My head went poppin', I sorta went blind   He starts in high divin', I lets out a groan   We went up together but he come back alone      Up high I turns over and below I can see   He's a pawin' up dirt just a waitin' for me   I can picture a grave and a big slab of wood   Sayin' here lies a twister who thought he was good      I notices somethin' don't seem can be true   But the brand on his hip was a Big Flyin' U   When I landed, he charged but I got enough sense   So I ran that old bull to the hole in the fence      I dives through that hole and I want you to know   I ain't goin' back to no big rodeo   At a straddlin' them Brahmas, you can bet I'm all through   I'm sore footin' it back to the Old Flyin' U
