Now Pecos Bill was quite a cowboy down in Texas
  Why, he's the Western Superman to say the least
  He was the roughest, toughest critter, never known to be a quitter
  'Cause he never had no fear of man nor beast
  So yippee-i-ay-i-ya, yippee-i-o
  He's the toughest critter west of the Alamo
  Once he roped a raging cyclone out of nowhere
  Then he straddled it and settled down with ease
  And while that cyclone bucked and flitted, Pecos rolled a smoke and lit it
  And he tamed that ornery wind down to a breeze
  So yippee-i-ay-i-ya, yippee-i-o
  He's the toughest critter west of the Alamo
  Now once there was a drought that spread all over Texas
  So to sunny Californy he did go
  And though the gag is kind of corny, he brought rain from Californy
  And that's the way we got the Gulf of Mexico
  So yippee-i-ay-i-ya, yippee-i-o
  He's the toughest critter west of the Alamo
  Now once a band of rustlers stole a herd of cattle
  But they didn't know the herd they stole was Bill's
  And when he caught them crooked villains
  Pecos knocked out all their fillings
  That's the reason why there's gold them thar hills
  So yippee-i-ay-i-ya, yippee-i-o
  He's the toughest critter west of the Alamo
  Pecos lost his way while traveling on the desert (Water, water, water...)
  It was ninety miles across the burning sand (Water, water, water...)
  He knew he'd never reach the border (Water...)
  If he didn't get some water (Water...)
  So he got a stick and dug the Rio Grande
  (Yodeling)
  While a tribe of painted Indians did a wardance
  Pecos started shooting up their little game
  He gave those redskins such a shakeup
  That they jumped out of their makeup
  That's how the Painted Desert got it's name
  So yippee-i-ay-i-ya, yippee-i-o
  He's the toughest critter west of the Alamo
  While reclining on a cloud high over Texas
  With his guns he made the stars evaporate
  Then Pecos saw them stars declining
  So he left one brightly shining
  As the emblem of the Lone Star Texas State
  So yippee-i-ay-i-ya, yippee-i-o
  He's the toughest critter west of the Alamo
  So yippee-i-ay-i-ya, yippee-i-o
  He's the emblem of the Lone Star Texas State
