Lyrics Cowboy - Leopold and His Fiction

Cowboy

When I was a cowboy out on the western plains
When I was a cowboy out on the western plains
I made a half a million pulling on the bridled reigns
Oh the hardest battle out on the western plains
When me and a bunch of cowboys we run in to Jesse James
The bullets were falling, they come down like showering rain
All his men ridin' after me, and they shot out their best regards
When you house catches on fire and there ain’t no water 'round
When you house catches fire and there ain’t no water around
Throw your jelly out the window, let your god damn shack burn down
Stride in on the devils burden, I had to put them in the ground
A better life, that waits for me, on the outskirts of town
