"Oh, out from old MissouriI set me forth to roamIndicted by a juryFor toling hawgs from home."With faithful Buck and CrowderI crossed the Western plainsThen turned them loose in the Cow-CountryAnd waited for my gains."And now I'm called a Cattle KingWith herds on many a stream—And all from the natural increaseOf that faithful old ox-team."The Song of Good-Eye.
