We got hogs in the pen and cotton in
the gin and my buckboard is doin' alright
We're doin' real good like country folks
should so we're gonna have a dance tonight
Now if the sun's up in the
Cheyenne we'll live a long day
So we'll get all the folks together
There's nothin' like a dance
A pretty weather pretty weather
ah bring along the old banjo
A pretty weather a pretty weather
the sunshine's dryin' up the road
We been snowed in all winter long couldn't
tickle no more with a feather
There's a big bright sun and
And everybody's havin' pretty weather
I had my eyes on a girl with the golden curls
but I ain't seen her all winter long
It's been too cool for a horse or a mule
and the road's about ten miles long
But the sun shines here and I'm alive again
and I'll meet her at the dance tonight
I'm as wide awake as ol' Street's
owl and the moon is a pretty and bright
