Send me on home boys the cattle retire
Wind up the mountain is blowin' in my ears
Been 7 weeks now I home once again
A warm meal some whiskey let the wild games begin

Seven card stud is the deal I require
With outlaws and beggars and lawmens and liars
The whiskey will flow 'til the dam runs dry
Makes 'em grow crazy with that fire in their eyes

My fortune was made but I've lost it twice
My timing was off every time I tried
When all circumstances have worn me thin
I take my last chance and I'm home again

If the timing were right I'd stay with you tonight...

The ladies are dancing and spinnin' around
Smoke rings and big dreams will lay you right down
But soon I'll be leaving this magic behind
To the dust of my cattle with too much sunshine

Send me on home boys the cattle retire
The wind up the mountain is blowin' in my ears
It's been 7 weeks now I home once again
A warm meal some whiskey let the wild games begin
My fortune was made but I've lost it twice
My timing was off every time I tried
When all circumstances have worn me thin
I take my last chance and I'm home again

My fortune was made but I've lost it twice
My timing was off every time I tried
When all circumstances have worn me thin
I take my last chance and I'm home again

If the timing were right I'd stay with you tonight...
