Irving Berlin - Colonel Buffalo Bill lyrics

Your rating:

Who pleases ev'ry woman, man and child?
 Who does his best to give the customers a thrill?
 -Who?
 Colonel Buff'lo Bill

 Who's got the show that gets the most applause?
 Five hundred Indians and fifty squaws
 Ten feature acts and there's the special feature still
 -Who?
 Colonel Buff'lo Bill

 Did you ever see a cowboy rope a steer?
 -No, we haven't
 Or an Indian with feathers throw a spear?
 -No, we haven't
 Or a marksman shoot an earring from an ear?
 -No, we haven't
 Did you ever see a hold up?
 -No, sir
 Then gather closer
 And let me give you some of the atmosphere

 The hour is midnight and all is still
 We see the stagecoach climbing up a hill
 Going along a mountain trail carrying passengers and mail
 Never suspecting danger as they roll along
 The watchful driver is in his seat
 His trusty rifle lying at his feet
 Some of the passengers inside seem to be dozing as they ride
 Never suspecting there is something really wrong

 Suddenly there's a shout
 -What is it all about?
 What is it all about you ask? It's Indians
 -Indians!
 Indians
 -Indians!
 Very notable, cut your throat-able Indians
 -Indians!

 Just when they've taken ev'ryone by force
 Who makes an entrance on a big white horse?
 Who starts a' shootin' till there's no one left to kill
 -Gen'ral Grant?
 No! Colonel Buff'lo Bill!

 -Certainly this is quite a thrill, better than all the vaudeville
 -Let us be on the go and see the show with Buff'lo Bill
