Verse 1: Am G Am Was in the town of Jacksboro in the year of '63 Am F C Am When a man by the name of Kreego came steppin' up to me Am F C Am Sayin' how you do young fellow, and how'd you like to go Am G Am And spend the summer pleasantly, on the plains of the buffalo Verse 2: Am G Am Well I been out of work right then, to the drover I did say Am F C Am This goin' out on the buffalo road, depends upon your pay Am F C Am But if you pay good wages, transportation to and fro Am G Am Well I think I might go with you, to the plains of the buffalo
Verse 3: Am G Am Yes I pay good wages, and transportation too Am F C Am If you'll agree to work for me, until the seasons through Am F C Am But if you get dissatisfied, and head back for your home Am G Am It's likely you will starve to death, on the plains of the buffalo Verse 4: Am G Am With all this flattering talking, he signed up quite a train Am F C Am Some ten or twelve in number, all able bodied men Am F C Am Our way it was a pleasant one, as westward we did go Am G Am Until we crossed old Burrow creek, into New Mexico Verse 5: Am G Am There our pleasures ended and our troubles all began Am F C Am The hardships of the summer, would bring the strongest men Am F C Am While skinning the herd of Buffalo, our lives they were so low Am G Am With outlaws waiting to pick us off, in the hills of New Mexico Verse 6: Am G Am Well the working season ended, and Kreego he did say Am F C Am You all have drunk too much, I owe you no more pay Am F C Am But the cowboys never had heard, such a thing and even so Am G Am So we left that drover's bones to bleach, on the plains of the buffalo
