I Tipped My Hat (And Slowly Rode Away) Harry James and His Orchestra (Ft. Art Lund)

[Verse 1]
I was ridin' down the trail from Santa-Fe
When I met a pretty gal along the way
I said "Ain't we met before"
Then she drew her forty-four
So I tipped my hat and slowly rode away

[Verse 2]
I was ridin' down the trail from Santa Fe
When I met another gal along the way
I said, "Baby, you're a dream
She said, "Touch me and I'll scream"
So I tipped my hat and slowly rode away

[Bridge]
Rode away, rode away
'Cause there was just no excuse for me to stay
Tipped my hat, that was that
Yes I keep that kitty sitting where she sat

[Verse 3]
I continued down the road to Santa Fe
When I met another gal along the way
I asked "Are you taken too?"
She said "Partner I'll take you"
So I tipped my hat and settled down to stay !
