The Marcus King Band - "This Ol' Cowboy"

Lyrics:

Well I'm sittin' down in San Anton'

Waiting on an eight o'clock train

My woman left me here last night

Things ain't been quite the same

I gotta get back to Dallas

And tie up a few loose ends

I'm gonna work a week make a hundred dollars

Aw and hit the road again

So I don't want you to think

That you're the first one

To leave me out here on my own

Cause this ain't gonna be the first time

This ol' cowboy spent the night alone

Now honey I've been a fool but a bigger fool

I can't remember when I've been

Just to open up my heart

And let you walk right in

Now there's one thing in this life

Ain't hard for me to do

That's as soon as I kiss the lips of another woman

I'm gonna forget all about you

So I don't want you to think

That you're the first one

To leave…
