Intro
Oh, how he sings, raggy music to the cattle
As he swings back and forward in his saddle
On a horse
(A pretty good horse),
Who is syncopated gaited,
And with such a funny meter
To the roar of his repeater.

How they run,
When they hear the feller’s gun,
Because the western folks all know:
He’s a hi-falootin’, rootin’, tootin’
Son-of-a-gun from Arizona,
Ragtime Cowboy
(Talk about your cowboy),
Ragtime Cowboy Joe.
