Q&A
Cattle Drive Lyrics
Hired me on a greenhorn
Fmaj7
Didn't know a rope from a horse
G6
But I wanted to be a cowboy
Am
So I took the job of course
The foreman he said "Son you gonna ride
Fmaj7
At the end of my herd"
G6
All the wranglers sat around in a circle
Am
And nobody said a word
Fmaj7
'Cause there's a woman in my dreams
G6
That keeps me alive
Fmaj7
If I ever see her again
E Am
Lord I'll never ride drag on another cattle drive
Solo: Am Fmaj7 G6 Am Am Fmaj7 G6 Am
Am
There's a rumor goin' round
Fmaj7
That we're near a Kansas City town
G6
And when you're ridin drag on this cattle drive
Am
It takes 'bout a week for the word to get around
Fmaj7
'Cause there's a woman in my dreams
G6
That keeps me alive
Fmaj7
If I ever see her again
E Am
Lord I'll never ride drag on another cattle drive
Outro: Am Fmaj7 G6 Am
Didn't know a rope from a horse
But I wanted to be a cowboy
So I took the job of course
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
