| Way out on the windswept desert where nature favors no man | |
| The buffalo found his brother at rest on the sun-baked sand | |
| He said, my brother, what ails you? Has sickness got you this way? | |
| But his brother never said, for his brother was dead | |
| Been dead since way last May | |
| (yodel) Oh-de-lay-ee, ah-ee. oh-ay-ee | |
| Here’s to Chief Big Buffalo Nickel, a mighty man in his day | |
| Never once used a sickle to clear the bushes away | |
| He would go ‘round from tent to tent, eat everything in sight | |
| He loved a squaw, every one he saw | |
| He loved a new one every night | |
| (yodel) Oh-de-lay-ee, ah-ee. oh-ay-ee | |
| Last night on the windswept desert I heard a big Indian moan | |
| I left my tent, I knew what it meant, and I swore I’d never more roam | |
| It was dawn when I reached safety, my legs were certainly sore | |
| I must of lost fifty pounds on that hot desert ground | |
| And I’d lose that many more | |
| (yodel) Oh-de-lay-ee, ah-ee, oh-ay-ee-ee-day-ee-ee |
