When Bob Got Throwed + 

That time when Bob got throwed + 

I thought I sure would bust. + 

I like to died a-laffin’ + 

To see him chewin’ dust. + 

He crawled on that Andy bronc + 

And hit him with a quirt. + 

The next thing that he knew + 

He was wallowin’ in the dirt. + 

Yes, it might a-killed him, + 

I heard the old ground pop; + 

But to see if he was injured + 

You bet I didn’t stop. + 

I just rolled on the ground + 

And began to kick and yell; + 

It like to tickled me to death + 

To see how hard he fell. + 

’Twarn’t more than a week ago + 

That I myself got throwed, + 

(But ’twas from a meaner horse + 

Than old Bob ever rode). + 

D’you reckon Bob looked sad and said, + 

“I hope that you ain’t hurt!” + 

Naw! He just laffed and laffed and laffed + 

To see me chewin’ dirt. + 

I’ve been prayin’ ever since + 

For his horse to turn his pack; + 

And when he done it, I’d a laffed + 

If it had broke his back. + 

So I was still a-howlin’ + 

When Bob, he got up lame; + 

He seen his horse had run clean off + 

And so for me he came. + 

He first chucked sand into my eyes, + 

With a rock he rubbed my head, + 

Then he twisted both my arms⁠— + 

“Now go fetch that horse,” he said. + 

So I went and fetched him back, + 

But I was feelin’ good all day; + 

For I sure enough do love to see + 

A feller get throwed that way. + 
