I Ride An Old Paint Lyrics - Chris Ledoux

I ride an old paint I lead an old Dan 

I'm off to Montan' for to throw the hooley ann 

They feed in the coulees they water in the draw 

Their tails're all matted their backs're all raw 

Ride around little dogies ride around slow the fiery and snuffy are raring to go 

Bill Johns had two daughters Bill Johns had a song 

One went to Denver and the other went wrong 

His wife she died in a poolroom fight 

Still he keeps singing from morning till night 

Ride around little dogies ride around then slow the fiery and snuffy are raring to go 

[ piano ] 

When I die take my saddle from the wall put it on my pony lead him out of the stall 

Throw my bones on his back turn our faces to the west 

And we'll ride the prairie that we love the best 

Ride around little dogies ride around then slow the fiery and snuffy are raring to go
