lyrics

Buffalo Joe was the pride of the town
He had a Chevy air filter that he wore
as a crown
He had one extra pinky and a pet baboon
And he’d been to the moon
(Or so he told me)

Buffalo Joe was a natural man
He ate cold beanie-weenies
straight out of the can
He drank his soda from a bottle
like a real buckaroo
And he could play the kazoo

Buffalo Joe, where did you go
Hey bud, we miss you like you
don’t even know
You said goodbye on the fifth of September
And now it’s getting toward the end of December
And all the people in the town I know
They’re asking where the hell is Buffalo Joe

Buffalo Joe had a ways to go
He walked 52 miles in the ice and snow
He was cold, he was lonely,
he was missing a toe
And he was moving slow

Well, we found him next April,
he was stiff as a board
On the top of a mountain,
face-up to the Lord
We brought him down into town and we buried his bones
Under a big marble stone

Buffalo Joe, why did you go
What you were thinking,
there’s no one can know
You said goodbye at the coming of autumn
A-chasing dreams and we hope that you caught ‘em
Now every winter we come in from the snow
And we drink a toast to Buffalo Joe
Yeah, we drink a toast to Buffalo Joe
Goodbye to Buffalo Joe
