Broken Down Cowboy Lyrics

John Fogerty

If I was a gamblin’ man Never would‘ve let you play your hand With a broken down cowboy like me
‘Cause you never can trust your luck He’s bad news in a pick-up truck That broken down cowboy like me
He’s played every card he’s got Had a good hand but he messed it up With that bum around tumble down heart
Saddle bags full of pain Carries ‘em around just like a middle name A losin' streak waitin' for dark
Oh, he’ll string you along Sing you a lonesome song But he’ll wind up alone again
No matter how hard you try Never gonna let you get inside That tumble down broken down heart
It’s a tough riding rodeo Mean horse threw him long time ago A broken down cowboy like me
But the way I feel about you Wouldn’t want that horse to hurt you too A broken down cowboy like me
Oh, he’ll string you along Sing you a lonesome song But he’ll wind up alone again
If I was a gamblin’ man Never would’ve let you play that hand With a broken down cowboy like me
