VERSE 1
Come all you rov'n cowboys
Down on these western plains
Come all you rov'n cowboys
Who'll go back home again
We'll see ole friends an' neighbors
Those we love so dear
We'll cross o-ver Lee's Ferry - O
An' go back home, this year

VERSE 2
We will, we will, they all did say
When fall round-up is o'er
We'll visit scenes of olden days
An' see ole friends once more
An' see ole friends an' neighbors
Those we love so dear
We'll cross o-ver Lee's Ferry - O
An' go back home this year

VERSE 3
It's easy for t'make a vow
It's easy to ferget
Those boys 'er old an' gray now
Their not pensioned yet
Never saw their friends an' neighbors
Those we love so dear
We never crossed Lee's Ferry - O
To go back home that year
