His face is grim; his eyes are green;
he's the meanest hombre ever seen.
If you want to stay safe and not get hurt,
you stay away from Baldy Bert.
His eyes are crossed, but he shoots straight;
he's sent a hundred to their fate,
so keep secure and don't get hurt
and stay away from Baldy Bert.
He has a temper that explodes;
if you cross him he just unloads,
so you stay safe and don't get hurt
and keep away from Baldy Bert.
His head is smooth; he has no hair,
but don't you ever stop and stare!
Just look away and don't get hurt,
and just avoid old Baldy Bert.
Don't you make fun of his bald head
or very soon you'll end up dead.
If you see him coming, run away
and live your life one more sweet day.
His teeth are yellow and they stink;
He'll slug a fellow in a blink.
His nose is large with three big moles;
mention it and he fills you full of holes.
He has a full and mangy beard,
and by the lawmen he is feared.
Wyatt Earp and many another
have seen him and then run for cover.
Avoid that bullet hole in your shirt,
and stay away from Baldy Bert!
