My cowboy life is so happy and free
Out west where the laws don’t bother me
I take my troubles like a toy
I’m just a yodeling cowboy
At the set of the sun when my work is done
On my pony I take a ride
Where the coyotes howl and the varmints prowl
With my forty-four by my side
I go down that lonesome trail just galloping long
I love to sing my yodeling cowboy song
Where a man is a man and a friend is a friend
Where all my cares and worries end
I have no troubles nothing but joy
I’m just a yodeling cowboy
At the set of the sun when my work is done
On my pony I take a ride
Where the coyotes howl and the varmints prowl
With my forty-four by my side
I go down that lonesome trail just galloping long
I love to sing my yodeling cowboy song
