Hired me on a greenhorn Didn't know a rope from a horse But I wanted to be a cowboy
So I took the job of course The foreman he said "Son you gonna ride At the end of my herd"
All the wranglers sat around in a circle And nobody said a word 'Cause there's a woman in my dreams That keeps me alive
If I ever see her again Lord I'll never ride drag on another cattle drive
There's a rumor goin' round That we're near a Kansas City town And when you're ridin drag on this cattle drive It takes 'bout a week for the word to get around
'Cause there's a woman in my dreams That keeps me alive If I ever see her again Lord I'll never ride drag on another cattle drive
