Beware of a gal in britches
  Yo-di-o-di-o
  Never trust no gal in britches
  No-di-o-di-o

  You would have known it by now of course

  No feminine gal wears britches
  No-di-o-di-o

  You ride twenty miles for the big romance
  She shows up in her brother's pants
  What'd you expect from a girl in britches
    Yo-di-o-di-o-i-ay, It's none of my misfortune
  Yo-di-o-di-o-di-ay, Just thought you'd like to know
  Don't marry no gal in britches

  No-di-o-di-o

  Have you cooking and washing clothes
  While she goes chasing them buffaloes
  Bet your boots, that's a gal in britches.
