ROY:
We're weary and tired, our work is all through
But we'll rest at the end of the trail
We'll stand by the fire when there's nothin' to do
When we rest at the end of the trail

S.O.T.P:
If we feel like ropin', we'll hitch to a star
So just keep on ropin', it's not very far
ROY:
We're weary and tired, our work is all through
But we'll rest at the end of the trail

DALE:
The road is mighty dusty, old pal
ROY:
The sun is sinkin' down below the range
DALE:
We're still together, trusty old pal
BOTH:
Ridin' the trail so strange

ROY & DALE:
If we feel like ropin', we'll hitch to a star
So just keep on ropin', it's not very far
S.O.T.P:
We're weary and tired, our work is all through
ROY & DALE:
But we'll rest at the end of the trail
