Cowboys they are ladies men all right they'll love 'em up and talk 'em up all night

But they're lonely when there's nothing else to do

And that's what makes the cowboys sing the blues

He does a little Shakespeare and he sings he plays the mandolin and other things

He's looking for love beauty and IQ and that's what makes the cowboy sing the blues

Cowboys have to fall in love get hurt and all that bit

Let their hearts hang out so they can write you all a hit

So ladies if they ask you don't refuse let's all help the cowboys sing the blues



Cowboys they don't ever understand this thing between a woman and a man

Until they find the one they always lose

And that's what makes the cowboys sing the blues

A cowboy takes his lonely pen in hand and tries to make somebody understand

But she has ears to hear a different tune

And that's what makes the cowboy sing the blues

Cowboys have to fall in love...

Let's all help the cowboys sing the blues
