Let's All Help The Cowboys

Cowboys, they are ladies men, all right They'll love 'em up an' talk 'em up all night But they're lonely when there's nothin' else to do And that's what makes the cowboys sing the blues He does a little Shakespeare an' he sings He plays the mandolin an' other things He looks for love, beauty an' IQ And that's what makes the cowboys sing the blues Cowboys have to fall in love, get hurt an' all that bit Let their hearts hang out so they can write you all a hit So ladies, if they ask, you don't refuse Let's all help the cowboys sing the blues Cowboys, they don't ever understand This thing between a woman an' a man Until they find the one they always lose That's what makes the cowboys sing the blues A cowboy takes his lonely pen in hand Tries to make somebody understand But she has ears to hear a different tune And that's what makes the cowboy sing the blues Cowboys have to fall in love, get hurt an' all that bit Let their hearts hang out so they can write you all a hit So ladies, if they ask, you don't refuse Let's all help the cowboys sing the blues Let's all help the cowboys sing the blues
