Hear my song as I ride along
I'm just a happy rovin' cowboy
Herdin' the dark clouds out of the sky
Keepin' the heavens blue.

Nowhere to go, nothing to do
I'm a happy roving cowboy
Let me ride that lone trail down to the end
Where the skies are always blue

Hear my song as I ride along
I'm just a happy rovin' cowboy
Herdin' the dark clouds out of the sky
Keepin' the heavens blue.

I ain't got a wife to bother my life
I'm a happy rovin' cowboy
Let me make my bed where the varmints prowl
Beneath the skies of blue.

Hear my song as I ride along
I'm just a happy rovin' cowboy
Herdin' the dark clouds out of the sky
Keepin' the heavens blue.

I ain't got a dime, just a-spendin' my time
I'm a happy rovin' cowboy
Let me sing my song till they call me home
To the land beyond the blue.

Hear my song as I ride along
I'm just a happy rovin' cowboy
Herdin' the dark clouds out of the sky
Keepin' the heavens blue.

Hear my song as I ride along
I'm just a happy rovin' cowboy
Herdin' the dark clouds out of the sky
Keepin' the heavens blue.
