C C7 I saw Big Bear Henry and Two Turtle Jim F Drivin' into town and they were ridin' on their rims. C D G - G7 Sold their tires to buy themselves a couple of cases of beer. C They got there a little too late F So they broke down the door and shot up the place. C G C Now everybody's gone crazy around here. Chorus: And it's restless nights and endless fights A hundred miles an hour and no headlights. Fiddles and accordions, tear-stained steel guitars It's a tar-paper shack, whiskey and smack, Two guns left on a five-rifle rack. Somebody 'round here's gonna get killed and that's for sure. Set up a barricade on the line, The cops came down and the bullets were flyin'. We held 'em up and then we held 'em off 'til just before dawn. They got Bear, then they got Jim, And then we got a couple of them. And if we make the trade they say they'll call it off. (Chorus) Down in the churchyard the mandolin's a ringin' I can hear the choir a-singin', Dogs are a-barkin', sirens are a wailin', out on the edge of town. The radio says the whole thing's over, But there ain't much that they don't know. 'Cause tomorrow mornin' the whole thing's gonna go down. (Chorus) LITTLE BUFFALO Fred J. Eaglesmith
