When I was just a little girl
Dressed up in Mama's pearls
All I ever wanted was
To be a Buffalo Girl
To ride like Annie Oakley
Shoot straight like Calamity Jane
With one Paint horse and a yellow dog
We'd ride across the plains
We'd come down from the mountains
Into town just once a year
And all the folks would stand around
And look at me in fear
I'd walk into the Long Branch
And take a shot of whiskey
After 12 or 13, I started feeling kinda friskey
I'd grab myself a cowboy
And spin a yarn or two
Then saddle up away I'd ride
Off in to the blue
A lot of folks would stand around
And say "who was that floozie"
Well, shut your mouth and bite your tongue
They call her "Wrangler Susie"
To my Beloved Chief & My Jumpin' Mule Briggy
