That Was the End of Them Yahoos

I was out riding the fences one day
and spied these here suits and their fancy car
They said they was from some oil company
and started cutting their way through the wire

Well I says whoa down a bit young fellas
I proceeded with my best daunting stare
There's a reason that no trespassing sign
has been hung up on that post over there

This suit says "Well old timer I don't care"
cause a blind man should be able to see
That all of them no trespassing signs there
just do not apply to my friends and me

Besides, how you think you're gonna stop us
that sign sure won't keep me from coming in 
I told him the odds was in my favor
cause was the four of us against just them

Well that dude puffed out and chuckled a bit
looks more like there's one old man agin three
I said you want to take another look 
there's Smith and Wesson, Remington and me

Well I put a friendly shot in the air
and them boys jumped into their car and fled
I’m sure their ride home didn’t smell too good
after I shot once more over their head
