little cowboy
Little fellow you're so tired You can hardly lift your head But you wanna hear a story Before you go to bed So if you'll be quiet And listen patiently I'll sing you a song That my mother sang to me  Little cowboy, put your saddle in the barn Tie your horse up tight, so he'll know no harm Put your hat and your gun Beside you on the chair Don't forget, you've got to say a little prayer Little cowboy, you'd better hit the sandman trail Or you'll be late for roundup time you know If you wanna be a cowboy, you'd better rest a while Little cowboy baby of the old corral Little cowboy baby of the old corral
