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