Discouraged is the word these days at homes acros the range
|
The livestock markets down and it don't look like it's gonna change
|
Nobody's found a cure for what we are goin' through
|
But I'll tell you boys just what I'm gonna do
|
Well I'm gonna saddle up old paint right after shipping time
|
Ride out on the mountain among the aspens and the pines
|
Take along my fishing pole and leave my cares behind
|
And find myself a little piece of mind
|
I'm gonna ride up on the mountain live like a mountain man
|
Lay my body on the ground eat from a fryin' pan
|
I know it's not the answer but I'm gonna try to lose
|
These dog gone low down workin' cowboy blues
|
|
Well next year it might get better aw thats what they always say
|
But I've seen a string of next years come and Lord they're all the same
|
But as long as there's a mountain, someplace to get away
|
Well this old cowboy just might not go insane
|
I'm gonna ride up on the mountain...
|
These dog gone low down lonesome workin' cowboy blues
|
