Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy You’re a long long way from Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy a long long way to roam
I’m a poor lonesome cowboy I’m a long long way from home And this poor lonesome cowboy Has a long long way roam Over mountains over prairies From dawn till day is done My and me keep riding Into the setting sun There are guys who just figure Have a problem with a gun And a finger on a Can be dangerous, hurt someone But solve much better By keeping calm and true My and me keep riding I ain’t nobody’s fool
But it doesn’t bother me Cause this poor lonesome cowboy Prefers a horse for company Got against women I wave them all goodbye My horse and me keep riding We don’t like being tied to roam
