[Verse 1]
C C/G C C/G
I ride an old paint, I lead an old Dan
G C/G
I'm goin' to Montana for to throw the hoolihan
G C/G
Where they feed in the coulees, and they water in the draw
G C/G
Their tails are all matted, their backs are all raw
[Chorus]
G C/G
Ride around them dogies, ride around them slow
G C/G
They're fiery and snuffy and raring to go
[Verse 2]
C C/G C C/G
Now old Bill Jones had two daughters and a song
G C/G
One went to college and the other went wrong
G C/G
And his wife, got killed in a pool room fight
G C/G
Still he sings from morning to night
[Chorus]
G C/G
Ride around them dogies, ride around them slow
G C/G
They're fiery and snuffy and raring to go
[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
C C/G C C/G
Whеn I die, take my saddle from thе wall
G C/G
Place it on my old pony, lead him out of the stall
G C/G
Tie my bones to the saddle, turn our faces toward the West
G C/G
We'll both ride the prairie that we love the best
[Chorus]
G C/G
Ride around them dogies, ride around them slow
G C/G
They're fiery and snuffy and raring to go
[Outro]
G C/G
Goodbye, old Paint, I'm leaving Cheyenne
G C/G
Goodbye, old Paint, I'm leaving Cheyenne
G F
Leaving Cheyenne, going to Montana
G C/G
Goodbye, old Paint, I'm leaving Cheyenne
G C/G
Ride around, old Paint, I'm leaving Cheyenne
(Play this line softly)
I ride an old paint, I lead an old Dan
I'm goin' to Montana, for to throw the Houlihan
Where they feed in the coulees and they water in the draw
And their tails are all matted, their backs are all raw
Ride around them dogies, ride around them slow
They're fiery and snuffy and rarin' to go
Now old Bill Jones had two daughters and a song
One went to college and the other went wrong
And his wife, she got killed in a poolroom fight
But still he sings from mornin' till night
Ride around them dogies, ride around them slow
They're fiery and snuffy and rarin' to go
When I die, take my saddle from the wall
Place it on my old pony, lead him out of his stall
Tie my bones to the saddle, turn our faces toward the West
We'll both ride the prairie that we love the best
Ride around them dogies, ride around them slow
They're fiery and snuffy and rarin' to go
Goodbye old paint, I'm leavin' Cheyenne
Goodbye old paint, I'm leavin' Cheyenne
Leavin' Cheyenne, going to Montana
Goodbye old paint, I'm leaving Cheyenne
Ride around old paint, I'm leavin' Cheyenne
