[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)
