lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy, you’re a long long way from home
lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy, you’ve a long long way to roam
i’m a poor lonesome cowboy
i’m a long long way from home
and this poor lonesome cowboy
has got a long long way to roam
over mountains over prairies
from dawn till day is done
my horse and me keep riding
into the setting sun
lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy, you’re a long long way from home
lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy, you’ve a long long way to roam
there are guys who just figure
have a problem with a gun
and a finger on a trigger
can be dangerous, hurt someone
but problems solve much better
by keeping calm and true
my horse and me keep riding
i ain’t nobody’s fool
lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy, you’re a long long way from home
lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy, you’ve a long long way to roam
i’m a poor lonesome cowboy
but it doesn’t bother me
’cause this poor lonesome cowboy
prefers a horse for company
got nothing against women
but i wave them all goodbye
my horse and me keep riding
we don’t like being tied
lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy, you’re a long long way from home
lonesome cowboy, lonesome cowboy, you’ve a long long way to roam
to roam…
