I am just a cowboy, lonesome on the trail
Those starry nights, campfire lights
The coyote call, the howling wind wail
As I ride out on an uncertain 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 all 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, those southern girls all seem the same
Down below the border, a town in Mexico
I set out with 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 free with the buffalo

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
