[Chorus]
C C7
Bald Butte, Bald Butte so lofty and so high
F
Carry me to Bald Butte
C
Where the plains wrap round the sky
G C
You can dig a hole on Bald Butte when I die
[Verse 1]
C
Henry was born on Bald Butte
C7
A paint horse he did ride
F
Well he roped him in Alberta
C
Broke him on the Montana line
G C
Tore him a trail through the northwest countryside
[Verse 2]
C
Henry took to stealing
C7
Robbing on the CP Rail
F
He got the devil on his shoulders
C
And the law man on his tail
G
You better ride, Henry ride
C
You ain't got no friends to go your bail
[Verse 3]
C
Well he rode across the Grey Back camp
C7
Up in Cypress Hills
F
They said they left the US nation
C
On the day that Richmond fell
G C
They whistled Dixie and set him up a still
[Verse 4]
C
Henry woke the next morn
C7
Like a corpse from the grave
F
Half blind and twice as haggard
C
He took a cast iron to the brain
G C
They stole his horse and the rifle that shared his name
[Verse 5]
C
And he tracked them former Johnny Rebs
C7
Through the prairie and the trees
F
Up old Castle Mountain
C
Cross the river Wapiti
G C
Low and behold, what do you think he sees
I see my paint
F C
I see my rifle that shares my name
G
I see them men that done me wrong
C
Lord, I'm gonna do them just the same
[Verse 6]
C
Henry grabbed his rifle
C7
Up off of the ground
F
He kissed the ever-loving barrel
C
And he shot them old boys down
G C
They hit the dirt, he revelled in the soumd
[Verse 7]
C
Now he's back up in the saddle
C7
Back up on the top
F
When he felt that southern slug
C
Chew a hole right through his gut
G
He thought he killed them all
C
But he had not
[Verse 9]
C
That paint took off a running
C7
Through the water and the mud
F
No earthly force in this whole world
C
Could stop that 'Berta stud
G C
Henry sat there laughing up his blood
C
And he was singing
[Chorus]
C C7
Bald Butte, Bald Butte so lofty and so high
F
Carry me to Bald Butte
C
Where the plains wrap round the the sky
G C
You can dig a hole on Bald Butte when I die
C C7
Bald Butte, Bald Butte so lofty and so high
F
Carry me to Bald Butte
C
Where the plains wrap round the sky
