I own this horse and saddle And that old cadillac This broken down horse trailer And the clothes that are on my back Well i know that it ain't a hell of alot But it's all that i can show My wife left me five years ago In one of those rodeo towns I can't say that i blame her much She just wanted to settle down Oh god how i miss that woman It hurt so to see her go If i was smart i woulda stuck by her But i'm hooked on this rodeo Chorus: And i'm just a lonesome cowboy I'm a little bit over the hill I shoulda quit this thing a long time ago But i guess i never will So i keep on movin from show to show Hopin to change my luck My good ol days are just a memory But i just can't give it up There was a time i used to do alright And bring home my share of the dough But now i'm losin out to the younger boys I guess i must be gettin slow But there's one thing you learn from this You gotta make it on your own Cause when your on top you've got a million friends But when your down buddy you're all alone Repeat chorus My good ol days are just a memory But i just can't give it up
