Cowboy Blues

Well there's a lonesome feeling that comes over me

when i hear that highway moan

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

a dreaming drifter far from home

I roam from town to town out on the interstate

I"m always only passing through

I need my women'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

I'm singin the cowboy blues

sometimes I get to thinkin bout settling down

fade off into a memory

but every night I step out to face that 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
