Ol' Faithful, we rode the range together,
Ol' Faithful, in every kind of weather.
When your roundup days are over,
There'll be pastures wide with clover
For you, ol' faithful pal of mine.

Hurry up old fella 'cause the moon is yeller tonight,
Hurry up old fella 'cause the moon is mellow and bright.
Theres a coyote howlin' to the moon above,
So carry me back to the one I love;
Hurry up old fella, 'cause we gotta get home tonight!
