Cowboy Night Herd Song |
On night guard, I’m a ridin' |
'Round a thousand bedded steers |
And tonight my thoughts are slidin' |
Down the trail of distant years |
Coyotes howlin' in the darkness |
Chills my weary bones |
Varmints prowl around the campfire |
Makes the cowboy feel at home |
Now the cold north wind is blowin' |
Snow comes fallin' down |
Wrapped in my saddle blanket |
Sleepin' on the cold cold ground |
I used to ponder over my luck |
Wondered why it never changed |
I was happy and free |
Around my mammy’s knee |
Pullin' on her apron strings |
Now I long to see the sun come shinin' |
Stealin' through my kitchen door |
Just to see my dear old mammy cookin' ham |
On that old kitchen stove |
Where the mockingbird sings you to sleep at night |
The moonbeams playin' through the trees |
Some like the climate out in New Mexico |
But give me back my sunny Tennessee |
