[C] Let me tell you a tale, [G] and a good one I owe, of [Dm] an old [G] caballo, [C] a strawberry roan.
I was hanging round town, [F] just a-spending my time, [C] [G] out of a job [C] and not earning a dime,
when a stranger steps up, [G] and he says, I [Em] suppose, [F] you're a bronco [G] rider [C] by the looks of your clothes.
[C] I says, guess you're right, [F] there's none I can't tame, [G] if it's riding wild [C] ponies, that's my middle name.
Oh, [G] that strawberry [C]
roan, [F] oh, that [C] strawberry roan, [F] he says he's a [C] caillouse that's never been [F] roaned,
the guy that gets [C] on him is bound to get thrown, thrown [G] off of that [C] strawberry roan.
Out in the horse [G] corral standing alone, is an old caballo [C] with strawberry roan,
spiving those legs [F] and small pigeon [G] toes, pair of [C] pig eyes and a long Roman nose,
little pin ears [G] and they're split at the tip, a big forty-four [C] brand was on his left hip,
so I puts on my [F] spurs and I coils up my twine, [G] says to this stranger that pin [C] spot is mine.
Oh, [G] that [C] strawberry roan, [F] oh, that [C] strawberry roan, [F] I'll break him to [C] saddle or break him my [F] own,
I'll ride him until he lies [C] down with a groan, [G] bring on your [C] strawberry roan.

[G] [C]
Then I puts on the blind and [G] it sure is a fight, next comes the saddle, [C] I screws her down tight,
steps up aboard [F] him and raises the blind, [G] get out of the way [C] boys, he's gonna unwind,
sure is a frog [G] walker, he heaves a big sigh, he only likes wings [C] for to be on the fly,
he's the worst bucking bronco [F] I've seen on the range, [G] turn on a nickel and give you some [C]
change.
Oh, [G] that strawberry [C]
roan, [F] oh, that strawberry [C]
roan, [F] that sun fishing critter's [C] worth leaving alone,
[F] there's an area buster [C] from Texas to known, [G] can ride that strawberry [C]
roan, [G] can ride that strawberry [C] roan.
