Cowboy Song

from No Strangers Here by SixMileBridge

/

about

Written in 1976 by hard rock Dublin band Thin Lizzy, about adventures traveling through America. They're best known for their U.S. hit "The Boys are Back in Town". It was just too fun to pass up!

lyrics

cowboy song
p. lynott & b. downey

i am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
starry night, campfire light
coyote calls and the howling winds wail
so i’ll let out to the old sundown

i am just a cowboy
lonesome on the trail
lord I’m just looking for a certain female
nights we spent together
riding on the range
looking back now it all seems so strange

chorus:
roll me over and turn me around
let me spinning till i hit the ground
roll me over and let me go
riding free with the buffalo

i was stuck in texas
i did not know her name
oh these southern girls they all seem the same
down below the border
in a town in mexico
i got a job
bustin broncs with the rodeo

chorus

roll me over and let me go
and i’ll move my fingers up and down
up and down
it’s alright amigo just let me go
just let me go

chorus
