Lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy You’re a long long way from home Lonesome cowboy, lonesome You’ve a long long way to
I’m a poor lonesome cowboy I’m a long long way from home And poor lonesome cowboy Has got a long long to 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 trigger Can be dangerous, hurt someone But problems solve much better By keeping and true My and me keep riding I ain’t nobody’s fool
But it doesn’t bother me this poor lonesome cowboy Prefers a horse for company Got nothing against women But I wave them all My horse and me keep riding We don’t like being tied to roam
