out on the range where the wild winds blow a cowboy's heart beats steady and slow
with a lonesome song he rides through the night chasing dreams in the pale moonlight
this cowboy's woman is a tale of woe of love lost in the desert's glow
with every mile the pain won't relent as he sings the cowboy's lament
he had a love once pure and true
but she's a memory
now under skies so blue
with every sunset he sees her face
a haunting duty time can't erase
this cowboy's lament is a tale of woe
of love lost in the desert's glow
with every mile the pain won't relent
as he sings the cowboy's lament
as he sings the cowboy's lament
He had a love once pure and true
But she's a memory now Under skies so blue
With every sunset he sees her face A haunting duty time can't erase

And though he rides with a heart so bent, his love remains in that cowboy's lament.
For in the end, when the trail grows dim, he'll sing that song just for her and him.
This cowboy's lament is a tale of woe, of love, love lost in the desert's glow.
With every mile, the pain won't relent as he sings the cowboy's lament.
He'll sing that song just for her and him.
He'll sing that song just for her and him.
