One of these days, one of these days
One of these fine old days, I’m gonna be free
Keep on truckin’ now, smilin’, wavin’ your hand
Oh, goodbye
She’s just fuckin’ around now,
Saying those things that she doesn’t really mean to say
She’s got guns to her hip, he’s a-crackin’ his whip
Yeah, he’s a cowboy
Well he sees her walk by, got that look in her eye
She’s so fine, she’s so fine
He’s a cowboy
Yeah
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
