The "High-Falutin-Wotan-Hunan virus"
Or, you can just call it Ragtime Cowboy Joe virus
- Out in Wyoming
- Where the bad men are,
- And the only friend to guide you
- Is an evening star,
- The roughest and the toughest
- Man by far
- Is Ragtime Cowboy Joe.
- He got his name from singin'
- To the cows and sheep
- They say that every night
- He sings the herd to sleep
- In a basso voice
- So rich and deep,
- A-croonin' soft and low.
- He always sings
- Raggy music to the cattle
- As he swings
- Back and forward in the saddle
- On a horse
- That's a syncopated gaiter
- There's-a such a funny meter
- To the roar of his repeater.
- How they run
- When they hear his gun
- Because the Western folks all know
- He's a high-falutin', rootin', tootin',
- Son of a gun from Wyoming,
- Ragtime Cowboy Joe.
- Dressed up ev'ry Sunday
- In his Sunday clothes
- He beats it to the village
- Where he always goes
- And ev'ry single gal
- In town is Joe's
- 'Cause he's a ragtime bear.
- When he starts a-spieling
- On the dance hall floor
- No one but a lunatic
- Would start a war
- Because the wise men know
- His forty-four
- Would make them dance for fair.
I think as its becoming a global pandemic, it's being dubbed the Kung Flu virus.
