The Texas Cowboy Lyrics - Hank Snow

Boys I was born in Texas State 

Many years ago 

I've rode on every range and plain 

There's no place I don't know 

I love to swing the lariat 

That's all I'll ever do 

I'm a two-gun singing cowboy 

And I've never had the blues 

For I hop on my old Pinto 

And o'er the plains we ride 

Just swingin' in the saddle 

My guitar hangs by my side 

Old Pinto's always willing 

As for me I'm never sad 

You'll find there beats 

An honest heart in this old Texas lad 

I sleep out on the rolling plains 

My blanket for a bed 

Waiting for the break of day 

To ride out to the herd 

I'll mount my old cow-pony 

Wear my boots and Stetson too 

And ride all day on Texas plains 

Beneath the skies of blue 

Now when my cheque of life I cash 

For the land beyond the sky 

I'm goin' to ride old Pinto out 

Across that Great Divide 

I'll ride the last great round-up 

Far across the Golden Plains 

Well boys, I hope you liked my song 

I'm on my way again 

O lee ay lee o, lee ay lee ay lee o 

Lee ay lee ay lee o, lee o dee hee 

O ay lee o, lee ay lee o lee o 

Lee o lee ay lee o, lee o dee hee 

O lee ay lee o, lee ay lee ay lee o 

Lee ay lee ay lee o, lee o dee hee 

O ay lee o, dee o lee, ay lee o, dee o dee hee
