W:Crack the whip and bring the blood
W:Make the leaders take the mud
W:We've got the wheels and we turn them around
W:One long hard pull and we're on hard ground

W:To me rol to me rol to my rideo
W:To me rol to me rol to my rideo
W:To my rideo to my rudeo
W:To me rol to me rol to my rideo

W:On the fourteenth day of October-o
W:I hitched my team in order-o
W:To try the hills of Salado

W:When I got there the hills were steep
W:Would make another person weep
W:To hear me cuss And crack my whip
W:And see the oxen pull and slip
W:
W:4
W:When I get home among my friends
W:That's where my toil and trouble ends
W:And bid adieu To the whip and line
W:And ride no more in the winter time
