Tom T. Hall Goodbye Cowgirl
Goodbye cowgirl, the trail ends here
Goodbye cowgirl, the tracks of all the dreams
That we were chasin' disappear
We take different trails
I prefer the rails to some city lights
Where they're civilized
Goodbye cowgirl set your stirrups high
Goodbye cowgirl you got to ride a
Many rough and dusty rocky mile
I was the enemy in your camp
You see I was restless nights
By the campfire light
Goodbye cowgirl, watch that western star
Goodbye cowgirl, ride around the mountains
Do not push yourself too far
I will remember you
What else could I do?
Life's like rodeos open and they close
