Last Of The Singing Cowboys Lyrics - Running Like The Wind - The Marshall Tucker Band

In the corner of dark bar room 

Sat an ole' cowboy singin' western tunes 

Singin' songs he learned as a child 

All about the West back when it was wild 

He said he came from down Texas way 

The cowboys were tough 

The women the same way 

Said he was a star back in '31 

Hollywood had liked him for some songs that he had done

He's the last of the singin' cowboys 

Singin' songs of inspiration and joy 

Yippie Yi Yo, Yippie Ay Aye 

He took a break, just to chug him down a beer 

C'mon folks holler out the songs you'd like to hear 

If I know one, I know a million tunes 

I'm not up here playin' for me 

This is all just for you 

And then he bragged on the Stinson hat that he wore 

Said it was the finest made since the war 

And he won the silver buckle ridin' on a cow 

And as he laughed he said 

I'll bet you're wonderin' how? 

He's the last of the singin' cowboys 

Singin' songs of inspiration and joy 

Yippie Yi Yo, Yippie Ay A ye

And after three hours or maybe more 

A lady grabbed his arm 

And showed him to the door 

The bartender said, "he's blind, you see 

Don't tell him the only audience he had was you and me" 

'Cause he's the last of the singin' cowboys 

Singin songs of inspiration and joy 

Yippie Yi Yo, Yippie Ay A ye
