I’d Like to Be in Texas for the Roundup In the Spring
[D] In the lobby of a big hotel
in [G] New York town one [D] day
Sat a bunch of fellows telling yarns
to [E7] pass the time a[A7]way
They [D] told of places where they'd been
and [G] different things they'd [D] seen
[G] Some preferred Chi[D] cago town
while [A7] others New Or[D] leans
In a corner in an old armchair
sat a man whose hair was gray
He listened to them eagerly
to what they had to say
They asked him where he'd like to be,
his clear old voice did ring
I'd like to be in Texas for the
round-up in the spring
(Chorus)
[D] I can [G] see the cattle grazing
o'er the [D] hills at early morn
I can [G] see the campfires smokin at
the [D] breaking of the [A7] dawn
I can [D] hear the bronco's [D7] neighing
I can [G] hear the cowboy sing
I'd [D] like to be in Texas for the
[A7] round-up in the [D] spring.
They sat and listened carefully
to each word he had to say
They knew the old man sitting there
had been a top hand in his day
They asked him for a story of his
life out on the plains
Slowly he removed his hat
then quietly began.
I've seen em stampede o'er the hills
till you'd think they'd never stop
I've seen em run for miles and miles
until their leader dropped
I was a foreman of a cow ranch
the calling of a king
I'd like to be in Texas for the
round-up in the spring.
(Chorus)
I'd like to sleep my last long sleep
with mother earth for bed
My saddle for a pillow,
the bright stars overhead
Then I could hear the last stampede,
the songs of rivers sing
Way back down in Texas for the
round-up in the spring.
