The Prisoned Cowboy
Kind friends you have heard the story And the song called Twenty One Years All of how two lovers parted Of their sorrow, pain and tears.
I am another who's heartbroken And I'm in this lonesome jail I was the honest ranger Tried for fame but soon I failed.
I was a cowboy singer And I played the old guitar But my mind was set on roaming I started out for lands a-far.
Soon fell with bad companions And we robbed the Western mail Shot and killed some helpless lady Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com as i think my face grows pale.
I had a pretty sweet heart and she though the world of me But we parted at the station Down in sunny Tennessee.
Last night from her I got a letter Saying, 'I can never be your bride.' As the moon shone though my window I bowed my head and cried.
Never more we'll stroll together Down in dear old Lover's Lane I must spend my life in prison I pray on high we'll meet again...
