Goodbye, old Paint, I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne; Goodbye, old Paint, I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne. I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne, I'm off to Montan' Goodbye, old Paint, I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne;
My foot's in the stirrup, thr reins in my hand, Good mornin', young lady, my hosses won't stand.
I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne, I'm off to Montan' Goodbye, old Paint, I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne;
My hosses ain't hungry, they won't eat your hay My wagon is loaded and rolling away.
I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne, I'm off to Montan' Goodbye, old Paint, I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne;
Old Paint's a good pony, he paces when he can, Goodbye, old Paint, I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne;
Go hitch up your hosses and give them some hay And seat yourself by me as long as you may.
