BUNNY ROUND-UP TIME Words and music by Leo Israel and Stephen Gale [ASCAP credits Hermann Krasnow] As recorded by Gene Autry on Columbia (39217), 1951, which you can hear at the Internet Archive. [A] Over the prairie, Texas bluebells chime. Get along, little cowboy; it’s bunny round-up time. Go ridin’ to dreamland where cottontails do roam. Get along, little cowboy; you’ll bring a bunny back home. [B] There’s a little toy bunny a-hoppin’ right by. There’s a sweet choc’late bunny with a jellybean eye, But you got up your pony and on he goes Till you rope a white bunny with the peppermint toes. Yippee-I, yippee-A, yippee-I. Then over the prairie while Texas bluebells chime, Ride home, little cowboy, from bunny round-up time. REPEAT [B]
