The Farmer and the Cowman
»
FROM: Oklahoma!
SUNG BY: All
WRITTEN BY: R. Rodgers/O. Hammerstein II
Oh the farmer and the cowman should be friends,
Oh the farmer and the cowman should be friends,
One man likes to push a plough, the other likes to chase a cow,
But that's no reason why they can't be friends.
Territory folks should stick together,
Territory folks should all be pals,
Farmers dance with the cowman's daughters,
Cowmen dance with the ranchers' gals.
I'd like to say a word for the farmer,
The path he rides is difficult and stoney,
He rides for days on end with just a pony for a friend,
I sure am feelin' sorry for the pony!
I'd like to teach you all a little saying
And learn the words by heart the way you should,
I don't say I'm no better than anybody else
But I'll be damned if I ain't just as good.
I don't say I'm no better than anybody else
But I'll be damned if I ain't just as good.
