The Lonesome Cowboy

George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin

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

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
