Chris Ledoux - A Cowboy Like Me Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Just barely eighteen when the Great War was through
  • Ridin' and fighin' was all that I knew
  • Hard life and death was all that I seen
  • Ridin' hell bend for leather in search of a dream
  • I rode drag on a heard up the old Chisum trail
  • Straight through Oklahoma to Dodge City's jail
  • My hard dusty wages played out way too soon
  • On whisky and Keno at the Long Branch Saloon
  • All I have left is my stories to tell
  • Heavens too far and I'm plumb scared of hell
  • Nobody wants this pain and misery
  • But there still are some who think they could be a cowboy like me
  • I spent one lonely winter in an old line shack
  • With beans in my belly rain on my back
  • A ration of coffee and a mountain of snow
  • With cattle to attend to at forty below
  • And it's back for the round up in April or May
  • You round up the calf's boys and you cut out the strays
  • And you might touch a woman before the long summer ends
  • Then its back to the line shack and do it all again
  • And all I have left...
  • I've given some bad guys a hard way to go
  • I busted my bones in them old time rodeos
  • I might have stretched truth Lord but I've never lied
  • Can't you tell I'm a cowboy by the scars on my side
  • But I rode with Cole Younger and New Jesse James
  • Me and old Wyatt use to ride on the range
  • And men all said sir to my Colt 45
  • And I was with Hitch***** the night that he died
  • All I have left...
