Colonel Buffalo Bill

Lyrics

[CHARLIE DAVENPORT] Who's got the stuff that made the Wild West wild? Who pleases ev'ry woman, man and child? Who does his best to give the customers a thrill? [COMPANY] Who? [CHARLIE DAVENPORT & COMPANY] Colonel Buff'lo Bill [CHARLIE DAVENPORT] Who's got the show that gets the most applause? Five hundred Indians and fifty squaws Ten feature acts and there's the special feature still [COMPANY] Who? [CHARLIE DAVENPORT & COMPANY] Colonel Buff'lo Bill [DOLLY TATE] Did you ever see a cowboy rope a steer? [COMPANY] No, we haven't [DOLLY TATE] Or an Indian with feathers throw a spear? [COMPANY] No, we haven't [DOLLY TATE] Or a marksman shoot an earring from an ear? [COMPANY] No, we haven't [CHARLIE DAVENPORT] Did you ever see a hold up? [COMPANY] No, sir [CHARLIE DAVENPORT] Then gather closer And let me give you some of the atmosphere [DOLLY TATE] The hour is midnight and all is still We see the stagecoach climbing up a hill Going along a mountain trail Carrying passengers and mail Never suspecting danger as they roll along [CHARLIE DAVENPORT] The watchful driver is in his seat His trusty rifle lying at his feet [DOLLY TATE] Some of the passengers inside Seem to be dozing as they ride Never suspecting there is something really wrong [CHARLIE DAVENPORT] Suddenly there's a shout [COMPANY] What is it all about? [CHARLIE DAVENPORT] What is it all about you ask? It's Indians [COMPANY] Indians [CHARLIE DAVENPORT] Indians [COMPANY] Indians [CHARLIE DAVENPORT] Very notable, cut your throat-able Indians [COMPANY] Indians [CHARLIE DAVENPORT & DOLLY TATE] Just when they've taken ev'ryone by force Who makes an entrance on a big white horse? Who starts a-shootin' till there's no one left to kill? [CHILD] Gen'ral Grant? [CHARLIE DAVENPORT, DOLLY TATE, & COMPANY] No, Colonel Buff'lo Bill Certainly this is quite a thrill, better than all the vaudeville Let us be on the go and see the show with Buff'lo Bill (Buff'lo Bill, Bill, Bill)
