| I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
|
| A starry night, a campfire light
|
| The coyote call, the howling winds wail
|
| So I ride out to the old sundown
|
| I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
|
| Lord, I’m just thinking about a certain female
|
| The nights we spent together riding on the range
|
| Looking back it seems so strange
|
| Roll me over and turn me around
|
| Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
|
| Roll me over and let me go
|
| Running free with the buffalo
|
| I was took in Texas I did not know her name
|
| Lord, all these southern girls seem the same
|
| Down below the border in a town in Mexico
|
| I got my job busting broncs for the rodeo
|
| Roll me over and turn me around
|
| Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
|
| Roll me over and let me go
|
| Riding in the rodeo
|
| Roll me over and set me free
|
| The cowboy’s life is the life for me |
