Where Have All The Cowboys Gone? Lyrics By Paula Cole

    one two three four

    oh you get me ready
    in your ’56 chevy
    why don’t we go sit down in the shade
    take shelter on my front porch
    the dandelion sun scorching
    like a glass of cold lemonade

    pre
    i will do the laundry
    if you pay all the bills

    where is my john wayne
    where is my prairie song
    where is my happy ending
    where have all the cowboys gone

    why don’t you stay the evening
    kick back and watch the tv
    and i’ll fix a little something to eat
    oh i know your back hurts
    from working on the tractor
    how do you take your coffee my sweet

    pre
    i will raise the children
    if you pay all the bills

    where is my john wayne
    where is my prairie song
    where is my happy ending
    where have all the cowboys gone

    i am wearing my new dress tonight
    but you don’t but you don’t even notice me
    say our goodbyes
    say our goodbyes
    say our goodbyes

    we finally sell the chevy
    when we had another baby
    and you took that job in tennessee
    you made friends at the farm
    and you join them at the bar
    almost every single day of the week

    pre
    i will wash the dishes
    while you go have a beer

    where is my john wayne
    where is my prairie song
    where is my happy ending
    where have all the cowboys gone
    where is my marlboro man
    where is his shiny gun
    where is my lonely ranger
    where have all the cowboys gone
    where have all the cowboys gone
    where have all the cowboys gone
