Weve been riding all night long just to get there
Dont you be throwing us out so soon
Across the whole d*** South with cotton-mouth
Now we got some drinking to do
Weve been stuck on the range for 45 days
And thats a long, long time
We aint leaving this place til theres a smile on our face
And the whole room is a friend of mine.
So wont you line em all up and slide em all down
And lets hear the jukebox roll
Weve been living on bacon and beans
Playing the jacks and the queens
But we still got some money to blow
And the time aint wild enough
We dig our spurs in, then make them jump
Were riding shotgun with the devil
Were the buckaroos.
My name is Gideon Tanner
Ive been a man of good manners
I wont dance til the ladies ask me
I simply tip my hat, I smile and sit back
And then I wait for that friendly stampede
I started dancing so tight that this girl turned white
I thought she must be passing away
I said, ''Now dont let me down
Cause when I hit this town
Ive got to live my whole life in a day.''
So wont you line em all up and slide em all down

Weve been living on bacon and beans
Playing the jacks and the queens
But we still got some money to blow
And the time aint wild enough
We dig our spurs in, then make them jump
Were riding shotgun with the devil
Were the buckaroos...
