• Oklahoma! - 15. The Farmer And The Cowman

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 can'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 like to say a word for the farmer,
He come out west and made a lot of changes

He come out west and built a lot of fences,

And built them right across our cattle ranges.

The farmer is a good and thrifty citizen,
No matter what the cowman says of things.
You seldom see them drinkin' in a bar room

Unless somebody else is buyin' drinks.

But the farmer and the cowman should be friends.
Oh, the famer and the cowman should be friends.
The cowman ropes a cow with ease,
The farmer steals her butter and cheese,
But that's no reason why they can'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 like to say a word for the cowboy,
The road he treads is difficult and stony.
He rides for days on end
With just a pony for a friend.

I'm sure I'm feelin' sorry for the pony!

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

But be sure that you lock up your wife and daughters!

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