Calgary Round-up

Colter Wall


We're headed for the round-up
Going to the big stampede
Ol' Dick Cosgrove's riding in the lead
Hear the rattlin' chuck wagon
And the snortin' buckin' broncs
Heading for the Calgary stampede

Gather 'round the ol' chuck wagon
Fix you up some grub
Flip those flapjacks over in the pan
Ol' Jim Ross, the Cook, he, boys, he sure can toss'em up
Well, his chuck is good enough for any man

We're a jolly bunch o' cowboys
And we hope you are the same
We have no care the laws we seldom heed
Come gather in our circle, and we'll sing this round-up song
Heading for the Calgary stampede

The guy who rode the old steamboat
Jack Manley was his name
A better pal a cowpunch never knew
The way that hosse could toss a rope
And take the lead in hand
When you're stuck, he'd always see you through

We're a jolly bunch o' cowboys
And we hope you are the same
We have no care the laws we seldom heed
Come gather in our circle, and we'll sing this round-up song
Heading for the Calgary stampede
Yes, we're headed for the Calgary stampede
