George Strait - Lonesome Rodeo Cowboy lyrics

I own this horse and saddle
And that old Cadillac
This broken down horse trailer and the
Clothes that're on my back
I know that it ain't a hell of a lot
But, it's all that I can show
For seventeen years of making my
Living riding the rodeos

My wife left me five years ago
In one of them rodeo towns
I can't say that I blame her much
She just wanted to settle down oh God
How I miss that woman and it
Hurt so to see her go
If I was smart I would've stuck by her
But, I'm hooked on this rodeo

And I'm just a lonesome cowboy
I'm a little bit over the hill
I should've quit this thing a long time ago
But, I guess I never will
I'll keep on moving from show to show
Hoping to change my luck
My good old days are all a memory
But, I just can't give it up

There was a time I used to do alright
And bring home my share of the dough
But now I'm losing out to the younger boys
I guess I must be getting slow
If there's one thing you learn from this
You gotta make it on your own
'Cause when you're on top, you got a
Million friends, but when your down, buddy
You're all alone

And I'm just a lonesome cowboy
I'm a little bit over the hill
I should've quit this thing a long time ago
But, I guess I never will
I'll keep on moving from show to show
Hoping to change my luck
My good old days are all a memory
But, I just can't give it up
My good old days are all a memory
But, I just can't give it up
