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
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
