"Gaucho (A Ranch Hand's Lament)" lyrics

Another day
Another fence
Another 1320 foot stretch

Line em up
Pull it tight
But don't let it break
This ol' barbed wire
Turns the boys into men

Oh and gaucho
Don't ya know
Ya cost me more than I've ever made
Oh and gaucho
It hurts though
These bloody hands ain't the real pain
It's bustin' my back
For not enough cash
Oh gaucho I curse your name

August sun
My help is done
He ain't been much help today

Pull my weight
Plus his
Bout to fire his ass
Hell he ain't even worth minimum wage

Oh and gaucho
Don't ya know
Ya cost me more than I've ever made
Oh and gaucho
It hurts though
These bloody hands ain't the real pain
It's bustin' my back
For not enough cash
Oh gaucho I curse your name

Well it's an age old tradition
Passed down through generations
From my daddy and his back in the day
I may complain
But it keeps the food on my plate
Most of the time anyway

Oh and gaucho
Don't ya know
Ya cost me more than I've ever made
Oh and gaucho
It hurts though
These bloody hands ain't the real pain
It's bustin' my back
For not enough cash
Oh gaucho I curse your name
Oh gaucho I cure your name
