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