Doggone Cowboy lyrics

I'm kin to the rovin' wind

That brings the norther in

Along that dusty trail I'll take my stand

The steers are big and bold

And the nights are often cold

But I'll get by so long as I can

Throw that rope and brand that calf

Dream of a girl in a photograph

I got no home I got no wife

But I'll be a doggone cowboy all of my life

I'm up at the crack of dawn

And I throw the bacon on

Seems somehow my work is never through

When I get done at night

All the stars are big and bright

But then that's sorta what you're used to when you

Throw that rope and brand that calf

Dream of a girl in a photograph

I got no home I got no wife

But I'll be a doggone cowboy all of my life

The hot dry wind may blow

And you'll see me in the rain and snow

With just an old campfire to keep me warm

I'll move the herd along

And I'll greet them with a song

So I guess that I was born

Throw that rope and brand that calf

Dream of a girl in a photograph

I got no home I got no wife

But I'll be a doggone cowboy all of my life
