Out on the plains, down near Santa Fe I met a cowboy, ridin' the range one day And as he jogged along, I heard him singin' A most peculiar cowboy song It was a ditty, he learned in the city Comma ta ai yai yeah, Comma ta yippity yai yeah Get along, get hip little doggies Get along, You better be on your way Get along, get hip little doggies An' he trucked 'em on down, that old fairway Singin' his Cow Cow Boogie in the strangest way Comma ta ai yai yeah, Comma ta yippity yai yeah Singin' his cowboy songs, he's Just too much He's got a knocked out western accent, with a harlem touch He was raised on loco weed He's what you call, a swing half breed Singin' his Cow Cow Booogie in the strangest way Comma ta ai yai yeah, Comma ta yippity yai yeah
