COWTOWN – M – D
Music: Kevin Mattingly 1991 /
Lyrics: Betsy & Kevin Mattingly 1999
Cowtown that way I’m bound
I’ve been herding doggies
To a place that’s shady
< Near Montgomery Texas > M
< Near Drippin Texas > D
Where a train is waiting
This old boy will be rolling down tonight
Cowtown this is my town
Yeah the boys are squawking
The cards are shady
But that’s just talk
Cause there’s a sheriff waiting
These young boys will be shuffling the cards tonight
Chorus: < An old cowboy he’s been riding saddle
< Rode through storms that shattered the deserts void
< Young cowboys they’ve been driving cattle
< Wind Rain Dust they’ve battled
< There’s just one joy
Cowtown least ways I’ve found
Well I heard them talking
Cowboys get crazy
But I just got myself
A painted lady
This old boy will be waltzing down tonight
Cowtown look whats come round
Well we herded the doggies
At the railway station
< Near Montgomery Texas > M
< Near Drippin Texas > D
Now that train ain’t waiting
These cowboys will be stepping out tonight
Chorus: < An old cowboy he’s been riding saddle
< repeat
Cowtown there’s a son down
You could hear us singing
Amazing Grace
So hold him Lord
Until the judgement day
Could be a heavenly cowboy is dancing round tonight
