Lyrics 'Twas in the town of Griffin In the year of sixty-five A well-known, famous drover... 'Twas in the town of Griffin In the year of sixty-five A well-known, famous drover Stepped up to me and talked Sayin', how do ya do, young cowboy And how'd ya like to go Spend the summer pleasantly In the hills of Mexico? Well, me being out of work right then To this drover I did say Well, this going out on the buffalo range Depends on your pay But if you pay good wages Transportation to and fro I think I might go with you To the hills of Mexico Well, we crossed the Latin river, boys Our troubles they begun Lightning flashed like hell-fire And made the cattle run I tread towards the hiding place There is a hot snow Comanches waiting to pick us off On the hills of Mexico
