Cowpoke

(album: Cattle Call - 1963)

[Moan]
I'm lonesome but happy
Rich but I'm broke
And the good Lord knows the reason
I'm just a cowpoke

From Cheyenne to Douglas
All the ranges I know
'Cause I drift with the wind
No one cares where I go [Moan]

I ain't got a dime
In these old worn out jeans
So I'll stop eating steak
And go back to beans

I'll pick up a ten spot
And press God I know
Well, I'm riding the broncs
In the big rodeo [Moan]

Some evening in springtime
A felly I'll find
And we might spend all the summer
With her on my mind

But I'll never be branded
And never be broke
I'm a carefree range riding
Drifting cowpoke... [Moan]
