Lonely Cowboy

I'm Just a Lonely Cowboy I Ride the Range at Night The Thoughts I Have of You Could Set a Herd to Fright You Took All of My Money It Wasn't Very Fair I Sure Did Love Ya, Honey With Your Golden Yellow Hair Your Eyes Were Blue and Innocent Your Lily White Hands So Small I Thought I Was a Big Man At Least Nine and a Half Feet Tall Well, You Took Me down a Peg or Two Just the Other Night When I Caught You with 'Old Cody And We Had a Hell of a Fight He Came out the Winner Of Course I Knew He Would It Didn't Change a Thing You Just Weren't Any Good You're a User and Abuser Of Every Kind of Man I Just Wish I'd Known it I'd Have Never Touched Your Hand So I'll Count Myself Real Lucky To Be Away from You You Got Me and I Learned Good Women Are Very Few I'm Just a Lonely Cowboy And I Ride the Range at Night But I'm Glad That I Found out Some Women Aren't Worth the Fight And If I Find a Woman That Will Treat Me Fair and Right I'll Ride That Lonesome Range And Have Good Thoughts of Her All Night Connie Moore August 11, 1992
