Near a cavern, in the canyon, in the shadow of the hill
It was there I kept a cathouse with my oldest brother Bill.
(Chorus Below)
Oh, my darling, oh, my darling
Oh, my darling, Clementine
You are lost and gone forever
Dreadful sorry, Clementine.
Though at first we didn't prosper, soon we started doing fine
When a girl came down from Gloucester by the name of Clementine.
(Chorus)
She was brazen, she was scrawny, she had no gift of gab
But she had the kind of quim, boys, that would reach right out and grab.
(Chorus)
Then the nights were filled with music, the days were filled with song
Our safe was stuffed with money, Clementine was stuffed with dongs.
(Chorus)
But one day there came a stranger, this time she'd met her match
He had a rifled member, she had a smooth-bore snatch.
(Chorus)
Brother Bill was first to notice, he shouted to her, "Turn!&q$ But before those words were spoken, she was spilt from stem to stern.
(Chorus)
We tore that dude to pieces, he was dead within the hour
And we left his cursed member for the coyotes to devour.
(Chorus)
Every day down by the graveyard when they toll the mission bell
We all lay a wreath of roses 'round the quim we loved so well.
(Chorus)

Chisholm Trail
Well I reached in my pocket and I pulled out a penny
She says, "For that you won't get any."
(Chorus Below)
So come and tie my root around a tree, 'round a tree
Come and tie my root around a tree.
I reached in my pocket and I pulled out a nickel
She says, "For that you won't even get a tickle."
(Chorus)
I reached in my pocket and I pulled out a dime
She says, "For that you're wasting your time."
(Chorus)
Well I reached in my pocket and I pulled out a quarter
She says, "Young man, I'm a minister's daughter."
(Chorus)
And I reached in my pocket and I pulled out a half
She didn't even talk, just started to laugh.
(Chorus)
And I reached in my pocket and I pulled out a dollar
She took my hand and she put it in her collar.
(Chorus)
So I reached in my pocket and I pulled out a five
She says, "Come inside, we'll see if you're alive."
(Chorus)
Well I rode her a-standin and I rode her a-lyin'
If I had wings I'd a-rode her flyin'.
(Chorus)
And I went to the doctor 'cuz my gun was sore
"Good Lord," said the doctor, "it's the same damn whore."
(Chorus)
You can put away your holster, put away your gun
your bough's been breached and your shootin's done.
(Chorus)
Well the last time I seen her, I haven't seen her since
She was hustlin' a bull through a barbed-wire fence.
(Chorus)

Charlotte the Harlot
Charlotte, the harlot, the girl we adore,
The pride of the prairie, the cowpuncher's whore.
Way down on the prairie where cowflop is thick
Where women are women and cowboys come quick
There lived pretty Charlotte, the girl we adore
The pride of the prarie, the cowpuncher's whore
It's Charlotte the Harlot, the girl we adore,
The pride of the prarie, the cowpuncher's whore.
She's dirty, she's vulgar, she spits in the street
Why whenever you see her, she's always in heat
She'll lay for a dollar, take less or take more
The pride of the prairie, the cowpuncher's whore.
Charlotte, the harlot, the girl we adore,
The pride of the prairie, the cowpuncher's whore.
One day in the canyon, no pants on her quim
A rattlesnake saw her and flung himself in
Charlotte the Harlot gave cowboys the frights
The only vagina that rattles and bites.
It's Charlotte the Harlot, the girl we adore
The pride of the prairie, the cowpuncher's whore.
One day on the prairie while riding along
My seat in the saddle, the reins on my dong
Who should I meet but the girl I adore
The pride of the prairie, the cowpuncher's whore.
It's Charlotte the Harlot, the girl we adore
The pride of the prairie, the cowpuncher's whore.
I got off my pony, I reached for her crack
The damn thing was rattling and bitin' me back
I took out my pistol, I aimed for its head
I missed the damn rattler, I shot her instead.
It's Charlotte the Harlot, the girl we adore
The pride of the prarie, the cowpuncher's whore
Her funeral procession was forty miles long
With a chorus of cowpunchers singin' this song
"Here lies a young maiden who never kept score
Young Charlotte the Harlot, the cowpuncher's whore!"
It's Charlotte the Harlot, the girl we adore
The pride of the prarie, the cowpuncher's whore!

Do They Hang Too Low
(Chorus Below)
Any old storm, any old port
Life is long, love is short
Better get a woman, get a woman if you can
If you can't get a woman, get a clean old man.
Do they hang too low, do they swing to and fro
Can you tie 'em in a knot, can you tie 'em in a bow
Can you swing 'em round your shoulder like a European soldier
Do they hang too low in the mornin'?
(Chorus)
Do they feel too tight, do they rattle when you fight
Can you keep 'em out of harm, can you throw 'em o'er your arm
Do they irritate your knees, do they tear your BVDs
Do they hang too low in the mornin'?
(Chorus)
Do they hang way down, do they drag along the ground
Do they feel so cool and nice when they slide along the ice
Do they irritate when you snag 'em on the gate
Do they hang too low in the mornin'?
(Chorus)
Do they hang too loose from self-abuse
Do they tangle in a knot, do they bang around a lot
Do they twist a key, do you wish that they would shrink
Do they hang too low in the mornin'?
(Chorus)

Roll Your Leg Over
If all them young ladies was up for improvement
I'd give them some help with a ball-bearing movement.
(Chorus Below)
Roll your leg over, roll your leg over
Roll your leg over the man in the moon.
If all them young ladies was little white kittens
And I were a tomcat, I'd make 'em new fittins.
(Chorus)
If all them young ladies was B-29s
And I was a fighter, I'd buzz their behinds.
(Chorus)
If all them young ladies was bats in a steeple
And I was a bat, there'd be more bats than people.
(Chorus)
If all them young ladies was wheels on a car
I'd be a piston and I'd go twice as far.
(Chorus)
If all them young ladies was little blind moles
I'd find their burrows, I'd fill in the holes.
(Chorus)
If all them young ladies was mares in a stable
I'd be the groom, mounting all I was able.
(Chorus)
If all them young ladies was diamonds and rubies
I'd be a jeweler and I'd shine up their boobies.
(Chorus)
If all them young ladies was singin' this song
It would be twice as filthy and ten times as long.

The Bastard King of England
Now the minstrels sing of an English king of many long years ago
He ruled his land with an iron hand though his morals were weak and low
His only other garment was a dirty yeller shirt
With which he tried to hide his hide but he couldn't hide the dirt.
(Chorus Below)
He was dirty and lousy and full of fleas
But he had his women by twos and threes
God bless the Bastard King of England.
Now the Queen of Spain was an amorous Jane
A lascivious wench was she
She longed to play in her loving way with the king across the sea
So she sent a royal message with a royal messenger
To invite the King of England down to spend the night with her.
(Chorus)
Well when Phillip of France he heard it by chance
He declared before his court,
"The Queen prefers my rival just because I'm somewhat short."
So he sent the Count of Zippity-Zap
To give to the Queen a dose of clap
To pass it on to the Bastard King of England.
(Chorus)
When the King of England heard the news
He cursed the Gallic farce
He up and swore by the royal whore he'd have the Frenchman's arse
He offered half the royal purse and a piece of Queen Hortense
To any British subject who'd undo the King of France.
(Chorus)
So the Earl of Sussex jumped on his horse and straightway rode to France
Where he made a pass and he stripped the sash from Phillip's pajama pants
And in front of a throng he slipped on a thong
Leaped on his horse and galloped along
Draggin' the Frenchman back to merry England.
(Chorus)
When the King of England he saw the sight he felt in a faint on the floor
For during the ride his rival's hide was stretched a yard or more
And all the maids of England came down to London town
And shouted 'round the battlements, "To hell with the British crown."
So Phillip of France usurped the throne
His scepter was the royal bone
With which he bitched the Bastard King of England.
