With all the talk of the big snowstorm hitting Western New York, the word of the week has been Buffalo.

So today's 9:30 Coffee Break is all about songs with the word "buffalo" in the lyrics.

What songs with "buffalo" in the title or lyrics do you want to hear for today's 9:30 Coffee Break?

Songs Played


Bob Marley and the Wailers "Buffalo Soldier"

Thin Lizzy "Buffalo Gal"

The Dead Weather "I Cut Like a Buffalo"
