sterling drake - night rider's lament كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
while i was out a_ridin’
the graveyard shift, midnight till dawn
the moon was bright as a readin’ light
on a letter from an old friend back home

[chorus]
he asked me, “why do you ride for your money
tell me, why do you rope for short pay
you ain’t gettin’ nowhere and you’re losin’ your share
son, you must’ve gone crazy out there”

[verse 2]
he said, “last night, i ran into jenny
she’s married and has a good life
if you sure missed the track when you never come back
she’s the perfect professional’s wife

[chorus]
she asked me, ‘why does he ride for his money
and tell me why does he rope for short pay
he ain’t gettin’ nowhere and he’s losin’ his share
oh, he must’ve gone crazy out there'”

[verse 3]
well i wrote up the last of my letter
i tore off the stamp for black jim
billy rode up to relieve me
he just looked at my letter and grinned
[chorus]
cowboys, why do we ride for our money
tell ’em, why do we rope for short pay
we ain’t gettin’ nowhere and we’re losin’ our share
boys, we must’ve gone crazy out here

[verse 4]
oh, but they’ve never seen the northern lights
they’ve never seen a hawk on the wing
they’ve never seen the spring at the great divide
oh, they’ve never heard ole’ camp cookie sing

[yodel]
yo_del_lay_ee_ho, del_lay_ee_ay, del_lay_ee_tee_ay
hee_del_lay_ee_tee_ay, yee_del_lay_ee
yo_del_lay_ee_ho, del_lay_ee_ay, del_lay_ee_tee_ay
yo_del_lay_ee_tee_ho, yo_del_lay_ee
i_dee_ho_lay_ee
yo_del_lay_ee
yo_del_lay_ee
