Even Cowgirls Get the Blues

Waylon Jennings · The Complete Mca Recordings [MCA] [2004]

Waylon Jennings and Johnny Cash.



(Waylon)

She's a rounder i can tell you that

She can sing 'em all night too

She'll raise hell about the sleep she's lost

But even cowgirls get the blues.



(Johnny)

Especially cowgirls they're the gypsy kind

And need their reins laid on 'em loose

She's lived to see the world turned upside down

Hitchin' rides out of the blue.



Chorus: (Both)

Even cowgirls get the blues, sometimes

Bound to, don't know what to do, sometimes

Get this feeling like the restless winds

The only way she's ever been.



(Waylon then Johnny)

Lonely nights are out there on the road

Motel ceiling stares you down

There must be safer ways to pay your dues

But even cowgirls get the blues.



Chorus: (Both)

Even cowgirls get the blues, sometimes

Bound to, don't know what to do, sometimes

Get this feeling like the restless winds

The only way she's ever been.



Chorus: (Both)

Even cowgirls get the blues, sometimes

Bound to, don't know what to do, sometimes

Get this feeling like the restless winds

The only way she's ever been...
