                                                          G 
And the other kids teased him, but I never did see him to cry 
               A                                                         D  G  D

And the lily of the valley and the nettle of the plains taught him well 
        A                                                                  D  G  D

And the boss-man knew better, but he had an empire to raise

    A                                                    D 
And I ain't got no time to be fooling with no wild Injun man."
