    The cowboy will never get married to you, girl
    It's the fightin' that he just can't bear
    But when there's women and whisky and beer-drinkin' brawls
    The cowboy will always be there
    He'll sing you sad songs, girl, 'cause that's all he knows
    And soon you'll be listenin' to
    Solutions to problems you don't even have
    As he unloads his wisdoms on you
    He'll have you believin' he's one-of-a-kind
    And that his kind knows what livin's for
    He's a dreamer by nature, a liar, and soon
    He'll have you believin' he's more
    He'll say he's a loner, to cover the truth
    Some sympathy might see him through
    Just a hand on his shoulder and a bottle of that booze
    Then all he'll be needin' is you
    He'll drink all your whisky, to clear out his head
    Of the drinkin' he's already known
    And with a little persuasion, he'll lie in your bed
    And when you wake up, you're alone
    Now you're feelin' sorry, and the cowboy is gone
    He just a-has ta be a-movin' along
    But honey when you get lonesome, turn your radio on
    And the cowboy will sing you a song
