Little Cowboy Songtext
von Harry Nilsson

Little fella 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
