Where Have All The Cowboys Gone? Lyrics

Oh you get me ready in your 56 Chevy
Why don't we go sit down in the shade?
Take shelter on my front porch 
The dandelion sun scorched, 
Would you like a glass of cold lemonade?

I will do the laundry if you pay all the bills.

 Where is my John Wayne?
Where is my prairie son?
Where is my happy ending?
Where have all the Cowboys gone? 

Why don't you stay the evening 
Kick back and watch the TV 
And I'll fix a little somethin' to eat?
Oh I know your back hurts from working on the tractor 
How do you take your coffee my sweet?

I will raise the children if you pay all the bills

(Chorus) 

I am wearing my new dress tonight 
But you don't even notice me. 
Say our goodbyes
Say our goodbyes
Say our goodbyes

We finally sold the Chevy 
When we had another baby 
And you took that job in Tennessee 
You made friends at the farm 
And you joined them at the bar 
Almost every single day of the week 

I will wash the dishes while you go have a beer.

Where is my John Wayne?
Where is my prairie son?
Where is my happy ending?
Where have all the Cowboys gone? 
Where is my Marlboro Man?
Where is his shiny gun?
Where is my lonely ranger?
Where have all the cowboys gone?

Yippee Aw, Yippee Yea 
Yippee Aw, Yippee Yea 
Yippee Aw, Yippee Yea
