Lyrics for Colonel Buffalo Bill by Irving Berlin:
| | | Artist: | Irving Berlin |
| | Album: | Annie Get Your Gun (Musical | | Track: | Colonel Buffalo Bill | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 69 | | | | Lyrics: | Who's got the stuff that made the Wild West wild?
Who pleases ev'ry woman, man and child?
Who does his best to give the customers a thrill?
-Who?
Colonel Buff'lo Bill
Who's got the show that gets the most applause?
Five hundred Indians and fifty
squaws
Ten feature acts and there's the special feature still
-Who?
Colonel
Buff'lo Bill
Did you ever see a cowboy rope a steer?
-No, we haven't
Or
an Indian with feathers throw a spear?
-No, we haven't
Or a marksman shoot an earring
from an ear?
-No, we haven't
Did you ever see a hold up?
-No, sir
Then
gather closer
And let me give you some of the atmosphere
The hour is midnight
and all is still
We see the stagecoach climbing up a hill
Going along a mountain trail
carrying passengers and mail
Never suspecting danger as they roll along
The watchful
driver is in his seat
His trusty rifle lying at his feet
Some of the passengers inside
seem to be dozing as they ride
Never suspecting there is something really wrong
Suddenly there's a shout
-What is it all about?
What is it all about you ask?
It's Indians
-Indians!
Indians
-Indians!
Very notable, cut your
throat-able Indians
-Indians!
Just when they've taken ev'ryone by force
Who makes an entrance on a big white horse?
Who starts a' shootin' till there's no one left
to kill
-Gen'ral Grant?
No! Colonel Buff'lo Bill!
-Certainly this is
quite a thrill, better than all the vaudeville
-Let us be on the go and see the show with
Buff'lo Bill | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
