Mama, Your Baby's Grown up to be a Cowboy Lyrics

Mama, Your Baby's Grown Up to be a Cowboy

Mama, your baby's grown up to be a cowboy

Despite the warnings old Willie gave

Mama, your baby's grown up to be a cowboy

Now gamblin' and drinkin' are all I crave

And it's too late for me to go to med school

And it's too late for me to learn the golden rule

Mama, your baby's grown up to be a cowboy

Ya, I'm a a cowboy, no I ain't no city fool

Mama, your baby's grown up to be a cowboy

Drinking' hard and tossing' love away

Mama, I tried to be a lawyer

But it was too much work

And not enough play

Now it's too late for me to go to med school

And it's too late for me to learn the golden rule

Mama, your baby's grown up to be a cowboy

Ya, I'm a a cowboy, no I ain't no city fool

Now you and daddy' had such high expectations

And your baby, like your expectations grew

Now whisky has replaced milk in my bottle

And my crib's a double trailer built for two

And it's too late for me to go to med school

And it's too late for me to learn the golden rule

Mama, your baby's grown up to be a cowboy

Ya, I'm a a cowboy, no I ain't no city fool

Ya, I'm a cowboy...no I ain't no city fool
