If the sun don't shine this evening and the rain is fallin' down
Don't you grieve just cause it's cloudy out
Come on down to the corner havin' a party there
You can dance naked ain't nobody care
Roll on just a keep rollin' on
Roll on just a keep rollin' on
Well if your mind is heavy lately and your boss keep gettin' you down
Don't worry honey Ralph Mooney is comin' to town
Roll on just a keep rollin' on
Roll on just a keep rollin' on
We can play just a little bit of ragtime pick up some rhythm and blues
What you call a boogie woogie you can dance off your shoes
Roll on just a keep rollin' on
Roll on just a keep rollin' on

Well he's a black haired boy of some confusion
He makes no excuse for the things he's usin'
He's gentle and wild a child of the mountain
His words are for sayin' his days are for countin'
He's lookin' for a home that he's scared to find
And the lady beside him drunk on white wine
There's a lady beside him drunk on white wine
He's a devil in the morning and a savior at night
Tomorrow's a case of whatever's right
Lonesome and high are the things that he feels
Cards that he plays are cards that he deals
He's lookin' for a home that he's scared to find...
He's one of the chances you're entitled to take
One of the hearts it's too late to break
I've seen him be silent and never knew why
I've seen him fall down to laugh stand up to cry
He's lookin' for a home that he's scared he'll find...

Did you ever find out who wrote that pretty song
Was the road to Mexico diamonds or stones
Did you keep the gold piece that I placed in your hand
Were you ready when the cold wind hit the Rio Grande
I was kinda crazy then I needed lovers more than friends
Songs on your guitar played flowers across my scars
Hope you find a friend tonight hope you find she treats you right
Can you see the same moon that I see tonight
Keep your words a shinin' like a bullet bright
Let the world wear their heart like a big bulls-eye
Don't ever let them tell you right from the wrong
And did you ever find out who wrote that pretty song
I was kinda crazy then I needed lovers more than friends...
I was kinda crazy then needed lovers more than friends...

You'll find him in a dancehall Saturday night
Listening to the music drinkin' beer
He'll dance and hold the ladies tight
And whisper pretty things in their ears
But they know he's easy come and easy go
That's the way a cowboy rocks and rolls
Cowboy ride on forever
You know there's good times waitin' on down the road
Cowboy ride on forever
Life is just one big old rodeo
He could hear the lonesome song and start to cry
Sometimes his heart's too big for his own good
But it sure ain't hard to make him want to fight
And he won't stop until he's understood
Drivin' pickup trucks and dippin' Skoal
That's the way a cowboy rocks and rolls
Cowboy ride on forever...
Cowboy ride on forever...

The cowboy's lady is cryin' tonight the cowboy's ridin' the range
Ramblin' runnin' and chasin' some strays cowboys don't ever change
I tried to hold him in the home corral but the grass looked greener outside
I'm gonna sit here in front of this door I've loaded up my cowboy's .44
When the smoke clears there'll be a new brand on his hide
Cause this is my cowboy's last ride
Oh oh I hate to see him go but I don't deserve all this cryin'
I I hate to see him die but this is my cowboy's last ride
The cowboy remembers the trails he once rode and he's back in the saddle tonight
But this time I'm lettin' those home fires burn out and I'm leavin' when I blow out his light
Cause I still remember waterin' holes and places still open and wide
And I have decided he won't put me down a filly should be free for horsin' around
And I will no longer be hobbled and tied this is my cowboy's last ride
Oh oh I hate to see him go but I don't deserve all this cryin'
I I hate to see him die but this is my cowboy's last ride
Oh oh I hate to see him go but I don't deserve all this cryin'
I I hate to see him die but this is my cowboy's last ride

Hello my old friend it's good to see you smile
You've been around so long you must be strong
And single life really has it's fine line
Like friends to help you out when things go wrong
Hold back the tears that you've been cryin'
Push out the fears when they come around
Hold back the tears and keep on tryin'
Just around the next corner may be waiting your true love
Two lyin' fools and then four cryin' eyes
Counting on one another to survive
Crazy love must surely have this thing
If gettin' up means goin' down again
Hold back the tears that you've been cryin'...
Hold back the tears that you've been cryin'...

Here you are back on my mind where you stay quite a lot
Bringing back all the old memories I thought I'd forgot
I just keep finding you with me and I don't know why
Maybe you should have been listening when I said goodbye
I can't believe how you keep hanging on in my mind
Don't you know leaving means one goes and one stays behind
I can't escape from you no matter how hard I try
Maybe you should have been listening when I said goodbye
Maybe you should have been watching when I walked away
Maybe you wouldn't keep turning up day after day
If you'd paid attention you'd know that I didn't lie
Maybe you should have been listening when I said goodbye

Lately you leave me in a cold state of mind
Your goodbyes are never on time
The blues just keep comin' and dryin' out your eyes
Don't you think I feel it too
A slow train a cold rain I'm all inside out
The lights just aren't shining on me
To live it again I'd be livin' a lie
Don't you think I feel it too
In a world of my own where the ground is my home
And the lights shine only from the sky
Like you like a fool I'm lost in the blues
Don't you think I feel it too
In a world of my own where the ground is my home...
Lately you leave me in a cold state of mind...

When I awake in the night to some old memory
Darlin' don't touch the light just come over here with me
And watch the world go away come as close as you can
Let your soft skin erase any bad dream I've had
And love me back to sleep again tonight you're all I need
Put my mind at ease again and love me back to sleep
And when I toss and turn from another sad dream
Darlin' don't say a word to let me know what you mean
And love me back to sleep again tonight you're all I need
Put my mind at ease again and love me back to sleep
And love me back to sleep again tonight you're all I need
Put my mind at ease again and love me back to sleep

Oh my goodness I'm such a lucky girl
Cause all my goodness comes from his world
When separation breaks us apart
Then all the goodness still warms my heart
Oh my goodness what would I be
Without your goodness to watch over me
When situations keep us apart
That old goodness he's still all my heart
