Lyrics : The Farmer & the Cowman

*Dialogue*

The farmer and the cowman should be friends
Oh, the farmer and the cowman should be friends
One man likes to push a plough
The other likes to chase a cow
But that's no reason why they cain't be friends

Territory folks should stick together
Territory folks should all be pals
Cowboys dance with farmer's daughters
Farmers dance with the ranchers' gals

Territory folks should stick together
Territory folks should all be pals
Cowboys dance with farmer's daughters
Farmers dancе with the ranchers' gals

Come on Andrеw help me out here

I'd like to say a word fer the farmer
Well say it

He come out west and made a lot of changes

He come out west and built a lot of fences

And built 'em right across the cattle ranges

Let those dirt-scratchers stay in Missouri where they belong

We got just as much right here as you have!

Shut up

The farmer a good and thrifty citizen

He's thrifty all right
No matter what the cowman says or thinks
You seldom see him drinkin' in a bar room

Unless someboy else's buyin' drinks

But the farmer and the cowman should be friends
Oh, the farmer and the cowman should be friends
The cowman ropes a cow with ease
The farmer steals her b***er and cheese
But that's no reason why the cain't be friends

Territory folks should stick together
Territory folks should all be pals
Cowboys dance with farmer's daughters
Farmers dance with the ranchers' gals

I'd to say a word for the cowboy

Oh, you would
The road he treads is difficult and stoney
He rides for days on end
With just a pony for a friend

I sure am feelin' sorry for the pony

The farmer should be sociable with the cowboy
If he rides by an' ask for food an' water
Don't treat him like a louse
Make him welcome in your house

But be sure that you lock up your wife an' daughters

Who needs an old barn woman anyway?

Noticed ya married one so as you could get a square meal

Can't talk that way about our woman folk

He can say what he bloody wants to say

*fighting explodes*
*Aunt Eller fires a gun*

Ain't no fighting [?]
This here's a party
Sing it Andrew
Dum-did-i-dum-dum

The farmer and the cowman should be friends

Oh, the farmer and the cowman should be friends
One man likes to push a plough
The other likes to chase a cow
But that's no reason why they cain't be friends

And when this territory is a state
An' joins the Union jus' like all the others
The farmer, and cowman and the merchant
Mus' all behave theirselves and act like brothers

I'd like to teach you all a little sayin'
And learn the words by heart the way you should
I don't say I'm no better than anybody else
But I'll be damned if I ain't jist as good

I don't say I'm no better than anybody else
But I'll be damned if I ain't jist as good

Territory folks should stick together
Territory folks should all be pals
Cowboys dance with farmer's daughters
Farmers dance with the ranchers' gals

Territory folks should stick together
Territory folks should all be pals
Cowboys dance with farmer's daughters
Farmers dance with the ranchers' gals
Ohhh
