Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy You’re a long long way from home Lonesome cowboy, lonesome You’ve a long long way to roam
I’m a poor lonesome cowboy a long long way from home And this poor cowboy Has got a long long way to Over mountains over prairies From dawn till day is done My horse and me riding Into the setting sun There are guys who just figure Have a problem with a And a finger on a trigger Can be dangerous, hurt someone But solve much better By keeping calm and true My horse and me keep riding I ain’t nobody’s fool
But it bother me Cause this poor lonesome cowboy Prefers a horse for Got nothing against women I wave them all goodbye My horse and me keep riding We don’t like being tied to roam
