All The Lonesome Cowboys
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ballroom women my six guns and the bible
The only pleasures that I have ever known
Ol' bandana to keep that sweat from rollin' in my eyes
As I head out on that lonely desert trail
All the lonesome cowboys
Winds are blowin' then they're showin' in their way
Face full of dust for a pocket full of gold
Makes it just a little easier to live that way
The campfire flickers in the moonlight
The sound of an old familiar song
But the boys won't admit as the sadness fills their bones
That it's lonely yes it's lonely livin' alone
All the lonesome cowboys
Winds are blowin' then they're showin' in their way
Face full of dust for a pocket full of gold
Makes it just a little easier to live that way
All the lonesome cowboys
Winds are blowin' then they're showin' in their way
Face full of dust for a pocket full of gold
Makes it just a little easier to live that way
All the lonesome cowboys
Winds are blowin' then they're showin' in their way
Face full of dust for a pocket full of gold
Makes it just a little easier to live that way
All the lonesome cowboys
Winds are blowin' then they're showin' in their way
Face full of dust for a pocket full of gold
Makes it just a little easier to live that way
