Johnny Cash - All Around Cowboy lyrics
[Johnny Cash - All Around Cowboy lyrics]
Just a broken down cowboy all
Down on his luck
He's been through the best of his friends
On a long lonesome highway in
An old pickup truck
Crossed Texas with a hot dusty wind
He was all around cowboy 1959
From the top it's been a long way down
Since the whiskey and ladies
Started winning his time
They rode him high and hard to the ground
But he remembers the thrill of being a winner
And the feeling of being a beginner in
The days of his first rodeo
But there was something about winning
That didn't last forever
But tomorrow it's bound to get better he'll
Be the all around cowboy again
The windmills are turning on
The west Texas plains
But he's dry as an old river bed
He's just like the dust that's
A searching for rain
But he knows he'll be riding again
So he rolls up a smoke and
He sips his Old Crow
Wipe the whiskers that cover his chin
He grins as he dreams of the next rodeo
To be the all around cowboy again
'Cause he remembers the thrill
Of being a winner
And the feeling of being a beginner in
The days of his first rodeo
There was something about winning
That didn't last forever
But tomorrow it's bound to get better he'll
Be the all around cowboy again
Down on his luck
He's been through the best of his friends
On a long lonesome highway in
An old pickup truck
Crossed Texas with a hot dusty wind
He was all around cowboy 1959
From the top it's been a long way down
Since the whiskey and ladies
Started winning his time
They rode him high and hard to the ground
But he remembers the thrill of being a winner
And the feeling of being a beginner in
The days of his first rodeo
But there was something about winning
That didn't last forever
But tomorrow it's bound to get better he'll
Be the all around cowboy again
The windmills are turning on
The west Texas plains
But he's dry as an old river bed
He's just like the dust that's
A searching for rain
But he knows he'll be riding again
So he rolls up a smoke and
He sips his Old Crow
Wipe the whiskers that cover his chin
He grins as he dreams of the next rodeo
To be the all around cowboy again
'Cause he remembers the thrill
Of being a winner
And the feeling of being a beginner in
The days of his first rodeo
There was something about winning
That didn't last forever
But tomorrow it's bound to get better he'll
Be the all around cowboy again
