C
Back in
D
the 1800s,
there were an awful lot
of longhorn cows in Texas
and an awful lot of people back east
C
with a taste for beef.
The trouble was that the
cows and the people
D
were nearly 2 ,000 miles apart,
C
D
and the closest railroads
C
were way up in Kansas,
D
nearly 1 ,000 miles north of south Texas,
G
so there was no way to get the
D
cattle to market.
Well, a rancher named Chisholm
G
D
had himself a dandy idea.
If they couldn't bring the railroad to the cattle,
G
why not bring the cattle to the railroad?
D
So he put a herd together,
G
hired a crew of young cowboys,
D
and drove them north to the rail
G
D
head in Abilene, Kansas.
G
D
Now, a lot of cowboys
drove a lot of herds from Texas to Kansas
on that very same route,
but it was always known as
E

the Old Chisholm Trail.
Oh, come along, boys, and listen to my tale
Tell you about my troubles
on the old Chisholm Trail

Sometimes things got real tough
out on the old Chism Trail
The cowboys faced dust,
mud, rustlers,
stampedes
and bad weather
They had to swim the cattle across rivers
and drive them through the desert
sometimes going for days and days
without seeing a single
drop of water.
Sometimes they'd get way
behind schedule
and have to drive them hungry
A
cattle all night long.
D
There's mud in the gully
and dust in the draw,
the boss man's meaner
A
D
A
than my mother -in -law.
D
Got a hole in my hat where the rain runs in,
a hole in my boot where it
A
D
A
runs out again.
D
Well, the water's gettin' scarce
and they're runnin' out of life
It looks like we're gonna have
to drive them all night

on the old Chisholm trail
With a rope in my hand

Sometimes that old trail boss
E
could get downright testy
And you sure got tired of eatin'
the same thing day in and day out
It was enough to make a feller
think about givin' up cowboyin'
Well, it's bacon and beans
most every day
I'd soon be eatin' that prairie hay

Come a -tie ya, yippee -yippee -yay,
