Songtext von Cowboy Jack

He was just a lonely cowboy with a heart so brave and true And he learned to love a maiden with eyes of heavens on blue They have learned to love each other and had planned their wedding day When a quarrel came between them and Jack he rode away Then one night when work was finished and just at the close of day Someone said come and sing a song Jack it will drive all cares away And when Jack began his singing then his mind it wandered back More he sang of his dear maiden who waited for her Jack Jack had left the camp next morning as he breathed his sweetheart's name I'll go back and ask forgiveness for I know that I'm to blame But when Jack he reached the prairie there he saw a new made mound And his friends they sadly told him they had buried his loved one down He was just a lonely cowboy with a heart so brave and true And he learned to love a maiden with eyes of heavens on blue
