[Verse 1]
C
Well it was way high up in The Sierry Petes
G
Where the yellow-jack pines grow tall
Rusty Diggs and Sandy Sam
C
Had a round-up camp last fall
[Verse 2]
C
They had their ponies and their running irons
F G
and maybe a dog or two
They 'lowed they'd brand every lop-eared calf
C
That came within their view
[Verse 3]
C
Well many a lop-eared dogie
G
If he didn't hush up by day
Had his long ears whittled and his old hide scorched
C
In a most artistic way
[Verse 4]
C
Then say Rusty Digs to Sandy Sam
F G
As he throwed his seago down
"I'm tired of cowboyography
C
And I figures I'll go to town."
C G C
[Verse 6]
C
They starts her in a Kentucky Bar
G
At the head of Whiskey Row
And they ends her up at the Depot House
C
Some forty drinks below
[Verse 7]
C
Then he wind'er up and they turns her 'round
F G
And goes the other way
Tell you the Lord-forsaken truth
C
Them boys got drunk that day
[Verse 8]
C
Well they was a -headin' back to camp
G
And packin' a mighty good load
Well who should they meet but the Devil himself
C
Come a-prancin' down the road
[Verse 9]
C
Now the Devil he said you cowboy skunks
F G
You'd better go hunt your hole
'Cause I come up from the Hells rim rock
C
To gather in your souls
[Verse 10]
C
Says Rusty Jiggs to the Devil
G
Though I know We're' tight
No Devil ever took no cowpunch
C
Without one kind of a fight."
C G C
[Verse 11]
C
So Rusty Jiggs punched a hole in his rope
G
He swang it straight and true
He lapped it onto the Devils horns
C
And he take his dollers too
[Verse 12]
C
Now Sandy Sam was a reita man
F
With his gut-line coiled up neat
G
So he shakes her out and he builds him a loop
C
And he laps the Devils hind feet
[Verse 13]
C
Well they stretched ´im out, the tailed ´im down
G
While the irons was a gettin' hot
They cropped and swallow-forked his ears
C
And they branded him up a lot
[Verse 14]
C
Well they pruned him up with a dehornin' saw
F G
Tied knots in his tail for a joke
Then they rode off and left him there
C
Necked up to a black Jack oak
[Verse 15]
C
So if you're up in the Sierry Petes
F G
And you hear one helluva wail
Know its that Devil a-bellowin around
C
about them knots in his tail
