Cowpoke - Eddy Arnold

COWPOKE
(Stan Jones)
'58 Edwin H. Morris & Co

I'm lonesome but happy rich but I'm broke
And the good Lord knows the reason I'm just a cowpoke
From Cheyenne to Douglas all the ranges I know
Cause I drift with the wind no one cares where I go
I ain't got a dime in these old worn out jeans
So I'll stop eatin' steak and go back to beans
I'll pick up a ten spot and press God I know
Well I'm ridin' the broncs in the big rodeo
Some evening in springtime a filly I'll find
And we might spend all the summer with her on my mind
But I'll never be branded and never be broke
I'm a carefree range ridin' driftin' cowpoke
