Waylon Jennings - All Around Cowboy lyrics

(Jack Wesley Routh - Len Pollard) Just a broken down cowboy all down on his luck Been through the best of his friends On a long lonesome highway in an old pickup truck. Crossed Texas like a hot dusty wind He was all around cowboy back in1949 From the top it's been long way down. Since the whiskey and the women Started winnin' his time They rode him high and hard to the ground He remembers the thrill of bein' a winner In the days of his first rodeo. But there's somethin' about winning That didn't last forever Maybe tomorrow things'll get better If devil lets loose of his soul He'll be, be the all around cowboy again. --- Instrumental --- So he rolls up a smoke and he sips his Old Crow Wipes the whiskers that cover his chin And he grins as he dreams of old rodeo He's the all around cowboy again. He remembers the thrill of bein' a winner In the days of his first rodeo...
