| [00:13.74] |
I'm going to sing a song about a man who I've met |
| [00:20.22] |
He lives alone in a quiet town his face I'll never forget |
| [00:25.95] |
And every line that marks his face is not from age I'm sure |
| [00:34.44] |
It's from aiming through a 308 as in his saddle he sits tall |
| [00:42.33] |
And will the real buffalo bill please stand |
| [00:49.71] |
Holding a beer and a gun in each hand |
| [00:55.29] |
Those bright blue eyes give away more than he knows |
| [01:01.74] |
When they sparkle as his story tells of chasin' buffalo |
| [01:07.71] |
And if I were born fifty years ago |
| [01:21.24] |
He'll laugh and grin with his mates but do they really understand |
| [01:27.33] |
About the days back then those buffalo and catchin' them by hand |
| [01:33.93] |
That life of his a wife and kids and too much rum don't go |
| [01:41.88] |
For a man a father a ringer a charmer and life with buffalo |
| [01:49.74] |
And will the real buffalo bill please stand |
| [01:55.80] |
He was holding a beer and a gun in each hand |
| [02:02.76] |
Those bright blue eyes give away more than he knows |
| [02:09.24] |
When they sparkle as his story tells of chasin' buffalo |
| [02:15.18] |
And if I were born fifty years ago |
| [02:28.53] |
Well the breaker he now no longer rides or risks so I'll stand clean |
| [02:34.80] |
He just dreams about those days long gone and life of danger he is free |
| [02:41.40] |
And I'm glad I met the man who lives in camooweal today |
| [02:49.56] |
To sing this song and carry on his life of yesterday |
| [02:57.39] |
And the real buffalo bill here stand |
| [03:03.18] |
He was holding a beer and a gun in each hand |
| [03:10.11] |
And in fifty years just look up high and catch a glimpse of horse |
| [03:16.95] |
Face to face with those buffalo saying she'll be right of course |
| [03:22.50] |
And if I were born fifty years ago |
| [03:29.28] |
I wouldn't like to be a buffalo no no |
| [03:35.25] |
And if I were born fifty years ago |
