Well we rode into town like a
couple of fools
One eye on the mescal, bent
low on my mule
Is just tryna find some place
where a man might get some
rest.
Wash the tears from my eyes
and the blood from my vest.
One lonesome saddle
One long and lonesome ride
One lonely cowboy
Pining a woman unkind
Walked into the saloon on my
feet that felt like lead
Cold steel hammer pounding
into the back of my head
I raise up my glass to the quick
and to the dead
Singin yeah ya heavy in the
bottle bed
One lonesome saddle
One lone and lonesome ride
One lonely cowboy
Pining a woman unkind
As the glass it left my lips I felt
her hand upon me
Her smile it was so warm, but
her eyes were so cold
She says to me now wont you
please walk beside me
I just shut my mouth and I did
as I was told
One lonesome saddle
One long and lonesome ride
One lonely cowboy
Pining a woman, a coldhearted
women
Pining a woman unkind
