Oklahoma Joe Lyrics

He prayed upon the bad ones so wide was spread his fame

From Houston up to Calgary the folks all knew his name

He was the toughest cowboy ever worked the rodeo

This man that they call Oklahoma Joe

His wins were tremendous and the crowds would gather round

The whisky flowed like water when his party came to town

It was the ramblin' life that he loved so

This man that they call Oklahoma Joe

The sands of time were winnin' mighty Joe would not give in

Heavy was the toll he'd pay to lead his life of sin

At the big one down in Cheyenne he got throwed

This man that they call Oklahoma Joe

A silence fell upon the crowd as Joe rose to his feet

At last there lived an outlaw might Joe could not defeat

And gone was all the glory he loved so

This man that they call Oklahoma Joe

On the sidewalks of Milwaukee where the winter wind is cold

His noble spirit broken and his body weak and old

In the mornin' light they found him lyin' dead upon the snow

This man that they call Oklahoma Joe

Take warnin' young cowboy turn back for its too late

Your sin will be recorded in that talley book of fate

You'll die and let the devil take your soul

Like this man that they call Oklahoma Joe
