Lyrics

THE COWBOY SONG
(Dena Jones Original Copyright 2007)Key G
HE SITS AROUND THE CAMPFIRE
CAUSE THE NIGHTS ARE GETTING COLD
TO STIR THE BURNING EMBER
WHEN HE SEE?S IT GROWING OLD
THE TRAIL AND LONELY PRAIRIE
HAVE BECOME HIS LADY FAIR
AND THOUGH HE ALWAYS TRAVELS
HE AIN?T GOING ANYWHERE

(CHORUS)
THE COWBOY STANDS TALL IN THE SADDLE
HE VOWS TO ALWAYS RIDE ALONE
A GUITAR AND SOME ROVING CATTLE
AROUND THE CAMPFIRE HE CALLS HOME
IT?S THE LONELIEST LIFE YOU?VE EVER KNOWN

HE TURNS HIS FACE TOWARD HEAVEN
THOUGHT THE STARS ARE IN HS EYES
BUT YOU CAN SEE THEM FALL LIKE DIAMONDS
WHEN MISS LONELY MAKES HIM CRY
HER MEMORY STILL REMINDS HIM
OF THE LOVE HE?S LEFT BEHIND
A LOVE THAT HE DESERTED
A LOVE THAT HE MUST GO AND FIND

(CHORUS)


THE COWBOY STANDS TALL IN THE SADDLE
HE VOWS TO ALWAYS RIDE ALONE
A GUITAR AND SOME ROVING CATTLE
AROUND THE CAMPFIRE HE CALLS HOME

(CHORUS)

IT?S THE LONELIEST LIFE YOU?VE EVER KNOWN

(TAG)
SO COWBOYS PLEASE REMEMBER BEFORE YOUR
DUST GETS IN A WHIRL
YOU?LL WANT TO BRING THE WAGON CAUSE YOU?LL
WANNA TAKE THE GIRL
