John Ed Sang Cowpoke

Chris LeDoux
When the rodeo was over, we're all go to the room.
We're drink some beer relax awhile and sing some cowboy tunes.
That old guitar we passed around, it was battered, scratched, and
broke.
But Lord it sounded mighty fine, when John Ed sang "Cowpoke"
Ben heí… í…½ think of some old tune, and heí… í…½ really wail away.
Dunderí… í…½ play the spoons and sing until the break of day.
Clyde heí… í…½ tell a poem or two and old Rich heí… í…½ crack a joke.
But damn it nearly make you cry when John Ed sang "Cowpoke"
Someday this road I travel, Lord I will leave behind.
But memories of the things Ií… e seen will never leave my mind.
On a quiet summerí…  evening when the sun is sinking low,
Ií… l think again of days gone by when John Ed sang "Cowpoke".
