John Fogerty Lyrics

"Broken Down Cowboy" lyrics


If I was a gambling man,
Never would have let you play your hand
With the broken down cowboy like me
Cos you never can trust your luck
He's bad news in a pickup truck
A broken down cowboy like me

He played every card he's got
Had a good hand but he messed it up
With that bummer down tumbled down hard

Saddled banks for the pain
Carries them around just like her middle name
A losing streak play them or dont

[Chorus:]
Oh he stang you along sang you a lonesome song
But he wind up alone again

No matter how hard you try
Never gonna let you get inside
That tumbled down broken down hard
It's a tough riding rodeo
Mean hard stewin long time ago
A broken down cowboy like me

But the way I feel about you
Wouldn't want that horse to hurt you to
A broken down cowboy like me

[Chorus]

If I was a gambling man,
Never would have let you play that hand
With the broken down cowboy like me
