Had me a gal in
Tulsa, and I thought she was my own
But she up and left me for
a waddy from
Salentone
She didn't even tell me that
she was leavin' me
Now I'm the lonesomest cowboy
down in the cow country
Got the cowboy blues,
I'm blue as I can be
That old, bull howlin' at the moon
ain't got a thing on me
Got a long, long lonesome feelin'
that I just can't seem to lose
I'm a lonesome cowboy singin' the
cowboy blues
Singin' the cowboy blues, I'll sell my horse and saddle,
and catch me a cattle train.
Leave my troubles behind me,
and I'll never come back again.
And if you ever see her,
just tell her this for me.
She made me the lonesomest
cowboy down in the cow country.
Got the cowboy blues
and blue as I can be.
That old, bull howlin' at the moon
ain't got a thing on me.
Got a long gone lonesome feelin'
that I just can't seem to lose.
I'm a lonesome cowboy singin'
the cowboy blues.
Doo, do -do -do, do -do -do,
