Cowboy Blues

(mike geiger/michael huffman/george mccorkle)



Well there's a lonesome feelin' that comes over me

When i hear that highway moan

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

A dreamin' drifter far from home



I roam from town to town out on the interstate

I'm always only passin' through

I need my woman'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

Singin' the cowboy blues



Sometimes i get to thinkin' 'bout settlin' down

Fade off into a memory

Every night that i step out to face the 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

Singin' the cowboy blues
