George Gershwin — The Lonesome Cowboy

(Verse) If you wonder why I am dressed up in my best There's a gal that I'm a dying for to see I have bought the ring Let the preacher do the rest And I'll take her back to Rancho XYZ Yes sir, she'll return with me Back to Rancho XYZ (Chorus) Oh, the lonesome cowboy won't be lonesome now 'Cause I'm gonna go out and get myself a frau Say for seven years I've saved up all my dough With a yippy-ki-yi-ki-yi-ki-yi let's go Oh I'm gone and bought myself a brand new suit And I'm figuring that my gal will think I'm cute So let's raise the deuce Till hell breaks loose 'Cause the lonesome cowboy won't be lonesome now Oh, the lonesome cowboy won't be lonesome now Hee haw! Hee haw! Laugh, hyena, laugh! Hee haw! Hee haw! Gotta stand the gaff Hee haw! Hee Haw! When you get a wife You have got a ball and chain for life Oh I'm gone and bought myself a brand new suit And I'm figuring that my gal will think I'm cute So let's raise the deuce Till hell breaks loose 'Cause the lonesome cowboy won't be lonesome now Oh, the lonesome cowboy won't be lonesome now
