"Western Cowboy" lyrics
"Western Cowboy"
(originally by Lead Belly)
Oh, when I was a cowboy
Out on the western plains
Oh, when I was a cowboy
Out on the western plains
Well, I drove half a million
Holdin' on to the bridle reins
Come a ki ki yicky
Cow ki yicky yicky yeah
Well, come all you young fellas
Oh, don't you wanna go?
Well, come all you young fellas
Now don't you wanna go?
Go see that good gal Sadie
Down in old El Dorado
Come a ki ki yicky
Cow ki yicky yicky yeah
Well, I went to see my good gal
She was sittin' high in her saddle
Oh, I went to see that good gal
She was sittin' high in her saddle
Said I'm the best western cowboy
That ever herded cattle
Come a ki ki yicky
Cow ki yicky yicky yeah
Oh, I went to see that good gal
She was rockin' in her rockin' chair
Now, I went to see my good gal
She was rockin' in her rockin' chair
Singin' "Oh western cowboy"
"You best not leave me here"
Come a ki ki yicky
Cow ki yicky yicky yeah
Well, we run into Jesse James
Boys, don't you run into Jesse James
Oh, run into Jesse James
Boys, don't you run into Jesse James
Well, the guns go off like thunder
And the bullets, they fall like rain
Come a ki ki yicky
Cow ki yicky yicky yeah
Now when I was a cowboy
Out on the western plains
Oh, when I was a cowboy
Out on the western plains
Well, I drove half a million
Holdin' on to the bridle reins
Come a ki ki yicky
Cow ki yicky yicky
Come a ki ki yicky
Cow ki yicky yicky yeah

There's a family and a house
Where the memories of us belong
We used to live there
Free of worry, free of care
Free of pain and what we'd become
If I could go back now

You can live your life like a prodigal son
