Old Bill was a pun-n-n-ncher
And you'll all agree-e-e-e
That a puncher's a man of low mental-i-tee-e-e.
Now Bill went a-ridin-n-n-n',
With a rope in his ha-a-and,
And by accident ropes one of his neighbor's brand.
Poor Bill was astonished
His error to fi-i-i-ind
And the cowboys all 'said, 'Old Bill's goin' blind.'So to save him from blindness-s-s,
They was kind—you'll agree-e-e-e,
They hung Old Bill up on a wha-a-ang-doo-o-dle tree-e-e.
