Lyrics
Island In The Sea
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.
I am a roving cowboy ridin' all alone
And for such a roving cowboy I've sure made myself at home
I love your sunshine I love your flowers I love your ocean rolling in
And for such a roving cowboy I've sure found myself a friend
I am a cowboy I am a sailor I have drifted far and wide
I have crossed the seven oceans I have crossed the Great Divide
But if you're ever looking for me let me tell you where I'll be
I'll be somewhere soaking up sunshine on my island in the sea
[ mandolin - harmonica - guitar - yodel ]
