[Verse 1]
When the round up's over and the sun goes down
Gonna saddle my bronc and hustle into town
On the owl-hoot trail
On the owl hoot trail
Gonna saddle my bronc and ride down the owl-hoot trail
[Verse 2]
In a gold nugget bar I'll take my stand
With a gal on my left and a bottle in my hand
On the owl-hoot trail
On the owl hoot trail
Gonna saddle my bronc and ride down the owl-hoot trail
[Verse 3]
Got a gal in Texas by the name of [?]
She can make a freight full of ten mile hill
On the owl-hoot trail
On the owl hoot trail
Gonna saddle my bronc and ride down the owl-hoot trail
[Verse 4]
Got a gal in the mountains and another one in town
If they ever get together I'm Alabama bound
On the owl-hoot trail
On the owl hoot trail
Gonna saddle my bronc and ride down the owl-hoot trail
[Verse 5]
I can tell by the sun when it's half past two
But I never can tell what a woman's gonna do
On the owl-hoot trail
On the owl hoot trail
Gonna saddle my bronc and ride down the owl-hoot trail
[Verse 6]
Well a black headed gal takes you round and round
But a red headed woman just wears you down
On the owl-hoot trail
On the owl hoot trail
Gonna saddle my bronc and ride down the owl-hoot trail
[Bridge]
Yeah, let's speed it up
[?] brother preacher
[Verse 7]
Well I went to the river to drown my sins
I thought about my mama and I couldn't jump in
On the owl-hoot trail
On the owl hoot trail
Gonna saddle my bronc and ride down the owl-hoot trail
[Verse 8]
I had my fortune told at the Gypsies' place
She read my mind, she slapped my face
On the owl-hoot trail
On the owl hoot trail
Gonna saddle my bronc and ride down the owl-hoot trail
[Verse 9]
I got locked up in the jail house again
And my girl ran away with the jailer man
On the owl-hoot trail
On the owl hoot trail
Gonna saddle my bronc and ride down the owl-hoot trail
