The Ox-Driving Song (hi-lo)

American folk song
Key: Bm

-3”4 4 4 4 -4 4 -3” -3”
-6 7 7 7 7 -8 7 -6 -6
I pop my whip and I bring the blood

-3”-4 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 -4
-6 -8 -8 -8 -8 8 -8 -8
I make my lead-ers take the mud

-4 5 6 -6
-8 8 9 -10
I grab the wheel

6 5 6 5 -4 5
9 8 9 8 -8 8
And I turn them a-round

-3” -4 -4 -4
-6 -8 -8 -8
One long, long pull

5 -4 4 -3” -3”
8 -8 7 -6 -6
And we’re on high ground

-3”-3” 4 4 4 4
-6 -6 7 7 7 7
To my roll, to my roll

4 -4 4 -3”-3”
7 -8 7 -6-6
To my ride-e-o

-3”-3” -4 -4 -4 -4
-6 -6 -8 -8 -8 -8
To my roll, to my roll

-4 -4 5 -4-4
-8 -8 8 -8-8
To my ride-e-o

-4 -4 5 6 -6
-8 -8 8 9-10
To my ride-e-o

6 5 6 5 -4 5
9 8 9 8 -8 8
To my ride-e-o

-3”-3” -4 -4 -4 -4
-6 -6 -8 -8 -8 -8
To my roll, to my roll

5 -4 4 -3”-3”
8 -8 7 -6-6
To my ride-e-o
