Marty Robbins - Doggone Cowboy lyrics

rate me

I'm kin to the rovin' wind that brings the norther in<br />

Along that dusty trail I'll take my stand<br />

The steers are big and bold and the nights are often cold<br />

But I'll get by so long as I can<br />

<br />

Throw that rope and brand that calf dream of a girl in a photograph<br />

I got no home I got no wife but I'll be a doggone cowboy all of my life<br />

<br />

I'm up at the crack of dawn and I throw the bacon on<br />

Seems somehow my work is never through<br />

When I get done at night all the stars are big and bright<br />

But then that's sorta what you're used to when you<br />

<br />

Throw that rope and brand that calf dream of a girl in a photograph<br />

I got no home I got no wife but I'll be a doggone cowboy all of my life<br />

<br />

The hot dry wind may blow and you'll see me in the rain and snow<br />

With just an old campfire to keep me warm<br />

I'll move the herd along and I'll greet them with a song<br />

So I guess that I was born<br />

<br />

Throw that rope and brand that calf dream of a girl in a photograph<br />

I got no home I got no wife but I'll be a doggone cowboy all of my life
