I Lost My Way, My Friend

Pleae tell me how to get home Which way does this old trail bend Had a little drink with some fellers I know And I lost my way my friend I have rode this way before Still it don't look right tonight I'm headin' for the bunkhouse to rest my head But I see the mornin' light Boss man's gonna have my hide 'Cause we're brandin' calves today All I want to do is to sleep for awhile But he'll prob'ly have his say Please tell me how to get home Which way does this old trail bend Had a little drink with some fellers I know And I lost my way my friend I could head back south, I s'pose Maybe go to San Antone Had a gal down there with a husband named Bob Guess I'll leave that gal alone It's funny how things work out Bein' a cowboy's sometimes hard Lots of long hours and a little bit of pay But you've always got a pard Please tell me how to get home Which way does this old trail bend Had a little drink with some fellers I know And I lost my way my friend 3/7/2017

Another great Cowboy Poem. I don't think I have enough of the right experience to write one, but I sure do like reading them. Thanks.
