CThe farmer and the cowman should be friends.
Oh, the farmer and the cowman should be Gfriends.
COne man likes to Fpush a plough, Cthe other likes to Fchase a cow,
CBut that's no reason Gwhy they cain't be Cfriends.
[Chorus]
CTerritory folks should stick together,
GTerritory folks should all be pals.
CCowboys dance with farmer's daughters,
FFarmers dance with the Granchers' Cgals. (repeat)
I'd like to say a word for the Gfarmer,
He Fcome out west and made a lot of A7changes
He Ccome out west and built a lot of G7fences,
And Cbuilt 'em right Gacrost our cattle Cranges.
The farmer is a good and thrifty Gcitizen, 
Fno matter what the cowman says of A7things.
You Cseldom see 'em drinkin' in a G7bar room
CUnless somebody Gelse is buyin Cdrinks.
But the farmer and the cowman should be friends.
Oh, the farmer and the cowman should be Gfriends.
CThe cowman ropes a Fcow with ease, 
Cthe farmer steals her Fbutter and cheese, 
Cbut that's no reason Gwhy they can't be Cfriends.
Territory folks should stick together,
GTerritory folks should all be pals.
CCowboys dance with farmer's daughters,
FFarmers dance with the Granchers' Cgals.
I'd like to say a word for the Gcowboy, 
Fthe road he treads is difficult and A7stoney.
He Crides for days on end with jist a Fpony for a friend.
I Csure am feelin' Gsorry for the Cpony!
CThe farmer should be sociable with the Gcowboy.
FIf he rides by and asks for food and A7water,
CDon't treat him like a louse make him Fwelcome in your house.
CBut be sure that you lock Gup your wife and Cdaughters!
[Chorus]
Territory folks should stick together,
GTerritory folks should all be pals.
CCowboys dance with farmer's daughters,
FFarmers dance with the Granchers' Cgals.
CThe farmer and the cowman should be friends.
Oh, the farmer and the cowman should be Gfriends.
COne man likes to Fpush a plough, Cthe other likes to Fchase a cow,
CBut that's no reason Gwhy they cain't be Cfriends.
CAnd when this territory is a Gstate
An' Fjoins the Union just like all the A7others
The Cfarmer, the cowman, and the G7merchant
GMust all behave theirselves and act like Cbrothers
CI'll teach you all a little Gsayin'
And Flearn the words by heart the way you A7should
I Cdon't say I'm no better than G7anybody else
But GI'll be danged if I ain't just as Cgood!
I Cdon't say I'm better than B7anybody else
But GI'll be danged if I ain't just as Cgood!
[Chorus]
Territory folks should stick together,
GTerritory folks should all be pals.
CCowboys dance with farmer's daughters,
