Yippi-yi Yippi-yo

Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay, Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay

I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande

And I sing the songs in the cowboy band



Chorus:

I know all the songs that the cowboys know

About the big corral where the dogies go

'Cause I learned 'em all on the radio.



Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay, Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay

He's an old cowhand from the Rio Grande

And he plays the fiddle in the cowboy band.



--- Instrumental ---



Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay, yipee-yi-o-kie-yay

He's an old cowhand from the Rio Grande

And he calls the dance in the cowboy band.



Caller's Chorus:

Dosie-do all around your pard

Swing that gal 'til she gits tired

Allemande left in your own backyard.



Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay, yipee-yi-o-kie-yay

He's an old cowhand from the Rio Grande

And he plays guitar in the cowboy band.



--- Instrumental ---



Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay, yipee-yi-o-kie-yay

He's an old cowhand from the Rio Grande

And he plays the bass in the cowboy band.



--- Instrumental ---



Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay, yipee-yi-o-kie-yay



--- Instrumental ---



Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay, yipee-yi-o-kie-yay



Oooeeeeoooooeeeeoooooaaaaaeeeeoooooo. (yodeling)



Oooeeeeoooooeeeeoooooaaaaaeeeeooooo. (yodeling)



Yipee-yi-o-kie-yay, yipee-yi-o-kie-yay
