Cowpoke

Cowpoke - Elton Britt

I'm lonesome but happy

I'm rich but I'm broke

And the good Lord knows the reason

I'm just a cowpoke

From Cheyenne to Douglas

All the ranges I know

Cause I drift with the wind

No one cares where I go

I ain't got a dime in

These old worn out jeans

So I'll stop eatin' steak and go back to beans

I'll pick up a ten spot and press God I know

Well I'm ridin' the broncs in the big rodeo

Some evening in springtime a filly I'll find

And we might spend all the

Summer with her on my mind

But I'll never be branded and never be broke

I'm a carefree range ridin' driftin' cowpoke
