    Cowboy In The Continental Suit
    Composer(s): Marty Robbins
    Performer(s): Marty Robbins; Chris LeDoux



    Well, he walks out in the arena, all dressed up to the brim
    Said he just came down from a place called Highland Rim
    Well, he said he came to ride the horse, the one they call The Brute
    But he didn’t look like a cowboy in his continental suit

    We sniggered at the way he dressed but he never said a word
    He walks on by the rest of us as if he hadn’t heard
    A thousand bucks went to the man that could ride this wild cayuse
    A meaner horse was never born than the one they called The Brute

    The horse that he was looking for was in shoot number eight
    He walked up very slowly, put his hand upon the gate
    We knew he was a thoroughbred when he pulled a sack of Dukes
    From the inside pocket of his continental suit

    Well, he rolled himself a Quirley and he lit it standing there
    Blew himself a smoke ring and he watched it disappear
    We thought he must be crazy when he opened up the gate
    Standing just inside was fifteen hundred pounds of hate

    The buckskin tried to run him down but the stranger was too quick
    He stepped aside and threw his arms around the horses neck
    And he pulled himself upon the back of the horse they called The Brute
    Sat like he was born there in his continental suit

    The Brute’s hind end was in the air, his front end on the ground
    Kicking and a-squealing, trying to shake the stranger down
    But the stranger didn’t give an inch, he came to ride The Brute
    And he came to ride the buckskin in a continental suit

    Well, I turned around to look at Jim and he was watching me
    He said “I don’t believe the crazy things I think I see
    But I think I see the outlaw, the one they call The Brute
    Ridden by a cowboy in a continental suit”

    The Brute came to a standstill, ashamed that he’d been rode
    By a city cowboy in some continental clothes
    The stranger took his money then we don’t know where he went
    We don’t know where he came from and we haven’t seen him since

    The moral of this story – never judge by what they wear
    Underneath some ragged clothes could be a millionaire
    Everybody listen, don’t be fooled by this galoot
    This sure enough broke buster in a continental suit
