            WOODY GUTHRIE - THE RANGER'S COMMAND

     Words and Music by Woody Guthrie

[Verse 1]
        G                              C
Come all of you cowboys all over this land
       D7                             G
I'll sing you the law of the Ranger's command
   G                                C
To hold a six-shooter and never to run
     D7                                     G
As long as there's bullets in both of your guns

[Verse 2]
G                                      C
I met a fair maiden whose name I don't know
  D7                                         G
I asked her to the round up with me would she go
G                                       C
She said she'd go with me to the cold round-up
   D7                                         G
And drink that hard liquor from a cold bitter cup

[Verse 3]
G                                  C
We started for the round up in the fall of the year
D7                                      G
Expecting to get there, with a herd of fat steer
G                                      C
When the rustlers broke on us, in the dead hour of night
    D7                                   G
She rose from her warm bed, a battle to fight

[Verse 4]
G                                 C
She rose from her warm bed with a gun in each hand
     D7                                           G
Saying, "Come all you cowboys, and fight for your land"
G                            C
Come all of you cowboys, and don't ever run
   D7                                      G
As long as there's bullets in both of your guns
