Standard (EADGBE)

I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail

a STARRY night, the CAMPFIRE light

The coyote call, and the howling winds wail

So I'll ride out to the old sundown

I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail

Lord, I'm just thinking about a certain female

The nights we spent together riding on the RANGE

Looking back it seems so strange

Roll me over and turn me around

Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground

Roll me over and let me go

Riding in the rodeo

I was took in Texas I did not know her name

Lord, all these southern girls seem the same

Down below the border in a town in Mexico

I got my job busting broncs for the rodeo

Roll me over and turn me around

Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground

Roll me over and let me go

Running free with the buffalo

Here I go

(solo)

Roll me over and I'll turn around

And I'll move my fingers up and down

Up and down

It's ok amigos

Just let me go

Riding in the rodeo

Roll me over and turn me around

Let me keep spinning till i hit the ground

Roll me over and let me go

Riding in the rodeo

Roll me over and set me free

The cowboy's life is the life for me
