Only cowboys get the blues Lyrics

Out on the prairie, under the clear blue skies

Where the only language spoken is in a cowboy's eyes

Saddled up on a weary horse, wearin' worn out shoes

In this world of dust and dirt, only cowboys sing the blues

Yodelay-hee-hoo, yodelay-hee-hey

In the heart of the Wild West, where the cowboys play

Their harmonicas cry, their guitars strum the truth

In this honky-tonk town, only cowboys sing the blues

Ridin' the range, with the setting sun behind

In the glow of twilight, loneliness you'll find

Whiskey in their hand, memories they can't lose

In this lonesome land, only cowboys sing the blues

Yodelay-hee-hoo, yodelay-hee-hey

In the heart of the Wild West, where the cowboys play

Their harmonicas cry, their guitars strum the truth

In this honky-tonk town, only cowboys sing the blues

They've seen it all, the love and the loss

Broken hearts and dreams, they bear the cross

But they keep on riding, under the starry muse

In this world of heartache, only cowboys sing the blues

Yodelay-hee-hoo, yodelay-hee-hey

In the heart of the Wild West, where the cowboys play

Their harmonicas cry, their guitars strum the truth

In this honky-tonk town, only cowboys sing the blues

So next time you see a cowboy, don't just pass him by

For in his soul, a melody of sorrow will lie

In the land of rodeos and cowboy crews

Remember, in this country song, only cowboys sing the blues
