Title: Hank Williams, Jr. - Cowpoke Lyrics
Artist(Band): Hank Williams, Jr.
Cowpoke
From Cheyenne to Douglas. all the ranges I know
I drift with the wind, no one cares where I go
I'm lonesome but happyâ rich but I'm broke
And the good Lord knows the reason I'm just a cowpoke
Well I ain't got a dime in these old worn out jeans
So I'll quit eatin' steak and go back to beans
I'll pick up a ten spot in Prescott I know (not press God)
From ridin' the broncs in the big rodeo
Maybe this winter, a filly Iâll find,
And Iâll spend the whole summer with her on my mind,
But Iâll never be saddled, Iâll never be broke,
Iâm a ramblinâ, gamblinâ, driftinâ cowpoke
Uh huh huh ooo ooo ooo
Been down in the prairie my pony and I
hear the wail of the coyote hear his cry
Uh huh huh ooo ooo ooo
Thanks for helping me remember the words to this old-timer. I learned it from my dad when I was a kid, (Iâm 62). I thought of this song today, couldnât remember all the words. Now I have them back. Never heard the last one though. Kind of awkward. Needs another word or two.
Anyway,
Thanks-George Bentley
