"Derby Blues" lyrics

"Derby Blues"
(Early Version of The Cowboy Song)

Oh, we'd like to thank you, really thank you
This is a new number this one
As yet untitled
We'll call it "Derby Blues"

I am just a cowboy, lonesome on the trail
Lord, won't you help me? I'm lookin' for a female
I don't want no trouble, 'cause you know I'd go to jail
I lay back in my electric chair

I was broke in Boston till the chick from Chicago came
And I was took in Texas, I did not know the name
I was lost in Angeles
But here I am, back in Birmingham
Oh, roll me over, turn me 'round

Just roll me over, turn me down
And here I am, back in Amsterdam
Man I was wishin' I was in Manchester
But, boys, it's good to be back in Birmingham
Oh, I'm new to New York

Just roll me over, turn me down
Oh, 'cause soon I won't be around
The show is over and I must go home
If you leave me by myself, I'll be alright on my own
Oh, but I wanna thank you and I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
