riders in the sky - (cody of the) pony express كلمات أغنية

in every corner of this world they boast of men so bold

from captain blood and mister mud to england’s kings of old

why, every place i’ve ever been, they think their man’s the best

but listen while i introduce a bold man from the west

a thunderbolt bust and then a big cloud of dust

and out rides cody of the pony express

totin’ the mail beside him, he knows the trail to guide him

cody of the pony express

now, the injuns wait by the canyon’s gate to take bill by surprise

but they’ll never beat the mustang feet of the fastest horse alive

so, over the rim he’s running

racing the wind, he’s coming

cody of the pony express!

now i once saw cody fight his way through a thousand indian braves

riding on a two-ton buffalo’s back, he jumped on an indian’s grave

then he took a half hitch on the buffalo’s tail and swung him ’round and ’round

says, “step up close, you red galoots, i’ll mo-o-o-o-w you down!”
