Doesn't sound like the hardest song in the world to decipher to me.... I'll have a go tonight if no one else beats me to it.

Just listening to it now.... it's fucking fantastic innit?! How old will you have been when you wrote it?

Who's got the stuff that made the Wild West wild?
Who pleases ev'ry woman, man and child?
Who does his best to give the customers a thrill?
-Who?
Colonel Buff'lo Bill

Who's got the show that gets the most applause?
Five hundred Indians and fifty squaws
Ten feature acts and there's the special feature still
-Who?
Colonel Buff'lo Bill

Did you ever see a cowboy rope a steer?
-No, we haven't
Or an Indian with feathers throw a spear?
-No, we haven't
Or a marksman shoot an earring from an ear?
-No, we haven't
Did you ever see a hold up?
-No, sir
Then gather closer
And let me give you some of the atmosphere

The hour is midnight and all is still
We see the stagecoach climbing up a hill
Going along a mountain trail
Carrying passengers and mail
Never suspecting danger as they roll along
The watchful driver is in his seat
His trusty rifle lying at his feet
Some of the passengers inside
Seem to be dozing as they ride
Never suspecting there is something really wrong

Suddenly there's a shout
-What is it all about?
What is it all about you ask? It's Indians
-Indians!
Indians
-Indians!
Very notable, cut your throat-able Indians
-Indians!

Just when they've taken ev'ryone by force
Who makes an entrance on a big white horse?
Who starts a-shootin' till there's no one left to kill?
-Gen'ral Grant?
No! Colonel Buff'lo Bill!

-Certainly this is quite a thrill, better than all the vaudeville
-Let us be on the go and see the show with Buff'lo Bill



I forgot my name. Please help.

Exclamation

Me and Melz's best attempt:

Everything, is alright, now the days back in sight,
but the pain in my gut feels much worse.

I can't make him at all, and his face looks so sore,
and in here there is no room to breathe.

(then it gets much harder as the music gets louder)

So we sat, and we talked, to defend, so I thought
then we rose, ***** (and did?) nothing, at all (??)

So I come to my room (climb to my room?) (cling to my rule?). The day can come too soon,
and I left and I came home to you.
