This Ol' Cowboy

Well, I'm a-sittin' down in San Anton'

Waitin' on an eight o'clock train

My woman left me here last night

Things ain't been quite the same

I gotta get back to Dallas

And tie up a few loose ends

I'm gonna work a week, make a hundred dollars

Ah, and hit the road again

So I don't want you to think

That you're the first one

To leave me out here on my own

'Cause this ain't gon' be the first time

This ol' cowboy spent the night alone

Well, honey, I've been a fool, but a bigger fool

I can't remember when I've been

Just to open up my heart

And let you walk right in

But there's one thing in life

That ain't hard for me to do

That's as soon as I kiss the lips of another woman

I'm gonna forget all about you

So I don't want you to think

That you're the first one

To leave me out here on my own

'Cause this ain't gon' be the first time

This ol' cowboy spent the night alone

Lord, if you wrote all the women's names down, I know

And let me pick one out

I don't think there'd be one in the whole bunch

Ah, I'd give a hoot about

So I don't want you to think

That you're the first one

To leave this ol' boy out here on his own

No, it ain't gon' be the first time

This ol' cowboy spent the night alone

No, it ain't gon' be the first time

This ol' cowboy spent the night alone
