    Default I looked outside my window - Buffalo dancing all around

    I'm looking for complete lyrics, and artist/year, for a song. What I remember is, "I looked outside my window, and what do you think I saw? The strangest site I've ever seen, I still can't believe it myself. There were two buffalo, two buffalo dancing all around . . . " It goes to 16, then down to zero, and the last line of each verse was "til all of my grass was gone." I think it is a mid 60's song.

    I looked outside my window and what do you think I saw?
    The strangest sight I've ever seen you'll never guess just what I mean,
    I can't believe it myself

    I saw 2 Buffalos, 2 Buffalos,
    Buffalos on my lawn,
    Romping all around and stomping on the ground
    And all of my grass was gone.

    I watched them for a while and what do you think I saw?
    The strangest sight I've ever seen you'll never guess just what I mean
    I still can't believe it myself!

    I saw 4 Buffalos, 4 Buffalos Buffalos on my lawn,
    Romping all around and Stomping on the Ground
    And all of my grass was gone.

    Then I began to worry, for what was I supposed to do?
    The strangest sight I've ever seen, I guess you've guessed just what I mean.
    Though I can't believe it myself
    I saw 8 Buffalos, 8 Buffalos,
    Buffalos on my lawn
    Romping all around and stomping on the ground and
    All of my grass was gone.

    Pretty soon there were 16 Buffalos, 16 Buffalos
    Buffalos coming in the door
    Romping all around and stomping on the ground
    There were Buffalos by the score

    Looked again and there's 32 Buffalos, 32 Buffalos
    Buffalos sliding down the stairs
    Romping all around and stomping on the ground
    There were buffalos jumping on the chairs.

    Pretty soon there were 64 Buffalos, 64 Buffalos
    Buffalos running in my room
    Romping all around and stomping on the ground
    Somebody better get a broom

    1 Hundred and 28 Buffalos
    Man that's enough of those Buffalos, jumping in my bed
    Romping all around and stomping on the ground
    So this is what I said;

    You better get out of here Buffalos
    Get outta here Buffalos
    Buffalos get outta my bed
    You've been jumping on things and busting all the springs
    And I'm gonna shoot you dead

    I looked out of my window and what do you think I saw
    The nicest sight I've ever seen
    I guess you know just what I mean
    I still can't believe it myself
    I saw No Buffalos, No Buffalos
    Buffalos on my lawn
    Not romping all around or stomping on the ground
    But all of my grass was gone.
