The Lone Star Trail - Ken Maynard
Oh I am a lonely cowboy and
I'm all from the Texas train
My trade is cinchin' saddles and pullin' bridle rein
But I can twist a lasso with the greatest skill and ease
Or rope and ride a bronco most anywhere I please
Oh I love the rollin' prairie
That's far from trail and strife
Behind a bunch of longhorns I'll journey all my life
But if I had a stake boys soon married I would be
To the sweetest girl in this
Wide world just fell in love with me
Wee-weeeeeee-eh-wheeee
Weeeee-weeee-wheeeee-weeee-weee
Oh when we get on the trail
Boys and the dusty billows rise
It's fifty miles from
Water and the grass is scorchin' dry
Oh the boss is mad and rangy
And you all can plainly see
I'll have to follow
The longhorns I'm a cowboy here to be
But when it comes a-rain boys one of the gentle kind
When the lakes are full of
Water and the grass is waivin' fine
Oh the boss will shed his frown
Boys and a pleasant smile you'll see
I'll have to follow the
Longhorns I'm a cowboy here to be
Wee-weeeeeee-eh-wheeee
Weeeee-weeee-wheeeee-weeee-weee
Oh when we get 'em bedded we think down for the night
Some horse'll shake his saddle and give the herd a fright
They'll get to their feet boys and madly stampede away
In one moment's time boys you can hear a cowboy say
Wee-weeeeeee-eh-wheeee
Weeeee-weeee-wheeeee-weeee-weee
Oh when we get 'em bedded we feel most inclined
When the cloud'll rise in the west
Boys and the fire play on their horns
Oh the old boss rides around then
Your pay you'll get in gold
So I'll have to follow the longhorns until I am too old
Wee-weeeeeee-eh-wheeee
Weeeee-weeee-wheeeee-weeee-weee
