Lyrics:
A group of jolly cowboys discussing plans at ease Said one, I'll tell you somethin' boys if you will listen, please I'm an old cow puncher, and here, I'm dressed in rags I used to be a tough one and go on great big jags I have got a home, boys, a good one you all know Although I haven't seen it since long, long ago I'm goin' back to Dixie once more to see them all I'm goin' home to Mother when the work's all done this fall That night this very cowboy went out to stand his guard The night was dark and stormy, was rainin' very hard The cattle they got frightened and they rushed in wild stampede The cowboy tried to turn them while ridin' at full speed Ridin' in the darkness, loudly he did shout Tryin' his best to stop them or turn the herd about His saddle horse did stumble and upon him it did fall Poor boy won't see his Mother when the work's all done this fall Fred, you take my saddle, Jim, you take my bed Johnny, take my pistol after I am dead Think about me kindly as you look upon them all I'll not see my Mother when the work's all done this fall They buried Charlie at daybreak no tombstone at his head Nothin' but a little board and this is what it said Charlie died at daybreak, he died from a fall Poor boy won't see his Mother when the work's all done this fall
