Cowboy Blues

Well there's a lonesome feelin' that comes over me

When I hear that highway moan

I know it's where the good Lord meant for me to be

A dreamin' drifter far from home

I roam from town to town out on the interstate

I'm always only passin' through

I need my woman's lovin' she's so far away

I'm singin' the cowboy blues

Stranger don't you know I'd like to be your friend

If I had the time to stay

But I'm a tumbleweed a blowin' in the wind

I've got to catch another stage

I strap on my guitar just like a .45

I pray each night my aim is true

I'm shootin' for the heart a lookin' in your eyes

Singin' the cowboy blues

Sometimes I get to thinkin' 'bout settlin' down

Fade off into a memory

Every night that I step out to face the crowd

I know this is the life for me

I strap on my guitar just like a .45

I pray each night my aim is true

I'm shootin' for the heart a lookin' in your eyes

I'm singin' the cowboy blues

Singin' the cowboy blues

Singin' the cowboy blues
