Bilingual
I drove a herd of cattle down
From old Nebraska way
That's how I come to be
In the state of I-o-way
I met a gal in I-o-way
Her eyes were big and blue
I asked her what her name was
She said Sioux City Sue
Sioux City Sue
Sioux City Sue
Your hair is red, your eyes are blue
I'd swap my horse and dog for you
Sioux City Sue
Sioux City Sue
There ain't no gal as true
As my sweet Sioux City Sue
I asked her if she had a fella
She said quite a few
But still I started courtin'
My sweet Sioux City Sue
The first time that I stole a kiss
I caught her stealin' two
I asked her did she love me
She said indeed I do
Sioux City Sue
Sioux City Sue
Your hair is red, your eyes are blue
I'd swap my horse and dog for you
Sioux City Sue
Sioux City Sue
There ain't no gal as true
As my sweet Sioux City Sue
Now I'm admittin' I-o-way
I owe a lot to you
'Cause I come from Nebraska
To find Sioux City Sue
I'm gonna rope and tie her up
Gonna use my old lasso
I'm gonna put my brand on
My sweet Sioux City Sue
Sioux City Sue
Sioux City Sue
Your hair is red, your eyes are blue
Champion's mine but the dog's for you
Sioux City Sue
My Sioux City Sue
There ain't no gal as true
As my sweet Sioux City Sue
There ain't no gal as true
As my sweet Sioux City Sue
Here boy, here boy, down, get down
