The Gay Desperado

A bold, bad man was this desperado,
From Cripple creek, way out in Colorado,
And he walks around just like a big tornado,
And everywhere he went he gave his war whoop!

He went to Coney Island just to take in all the sights,
To see the hoochy-coochers and the girls dressed up in tights,
They got him so excited that he shot out all the lights,
And everywhere he went he gave his war whoop!

A great big fat policeman came a'walkin' down his beat,
He saw this desperado come a'roarin' down the street,
He grabbed him by the whiskers, And he grabbed him by his seat, And he put him where he could not give his war whoop!
