Songs Of The Kingwood Kowboy

On The Lost Side Of Town (Larry W Jones 9/11/2021) (song #7753)

Now, every big town has a side

Where people go and people hide

When their life of lost love has turned them upside down

Now, I know that I’m only one

Who knew just when the tide had turned

It was when her pride headed her for some new ground

(Instrumental)

Oh, I felt lost and so confused

I felt my heart was being used

Until one day a broken heart like mine I found

When I found you it turned the tide

Now both our smiles we cannot hide

Ever since I found you on the lost side of town

(Instrumental)

When I found you it turned the tide

Now both our smiles we cannot hide

Ever since I found you on the lost side of town

Now I’m no longer on the run

You and I are the same as one

I’m so glad I found you on the lost side of town

I’m so glad I found you on the lost side of town

Full Moon Dreaming (Larry W Jones 03/20/2021) (song #7752)

When a full moon dreaming comes beam, beam, beaming on you

When a full moon dreaming comes beam, beam, beaming on you, on you

There’ll be no deceiving when you’re receiving a dream that will come true

Dream on, dream on, you dreamer

Beam on, beam on, moon schemer

Tomorrow may come your redeemer

A true love dream may come to you

One time I felt so blue

Didn’t know what to do

Then I wished upon a star

More than a dream is what you are

(Instrumental)

I’m in love again, your hand in glove I win, walking with you

When a full moon dreaming comes beam, beam, beaming on you

When a full moon dreaming comes beam, beam, beaming on you, on you

There’ll be no deceiving when you’re receiving a dream that will come true

When a full moon dreaming comes beam, beam, beaming on you, on you

There’ll be no deceiving when you’re receiving a dream that will come true

Dream on, dream on you dreamer

Beam on, beam on moon schemer

Tomorrow may come your redeemer

A true love dream may come to you

(Instrumental)

I’m in love again, your hand in glove I win, walking with you

When a full moon dreaming comes beam, beam, beaming on you

When a full moon dreaming comes beam, beam, beaming on you, on you

There’ll be no deceiving when you’re receiving a dream that will come true

When a full moon dreaming comes beam, beam, beaming on you

The Cowboy That Was Me (Larry W Jones 02/11/2021) (song #7750)

Oh, sing me a song of a cowboy gone

I ask pard, could that man be me

With joy in his soul he rode trails alone

From plains and mountains to the sea

Home was behind across the Great Divide

Ahead was all that dreams allowed

Youth was spent taking life and love in stride

But where is youthful vigor now

(Instrumental)

Oh, sing me a song of a cowboy gone

I ask pard, could that man be me

With joy in his soul he rode trails alone

From plains and mountains to the sea

Oh, give me the cowboy that once was here

Give me the twinkle in his eye

And give me the song that he once held dear

One he sang under western skies

(Instrumental)

Oh, sing me a song of a cowboy gone

I ask pard, could that man be me

With joy in his soul he rode trails alone

From plains and mountains to the sea

Saddle and reins over mountains and plains

Sleeping out til the morning dawn

Oh, sing me a song with a sad refrain

The cowboy that was me is gone

Along The Trail Before Me (Larry W Jones 02/10/2021) (song #7749)

Give to me the trail I love

And let the land go by me

Give to me the sky above

And streams that flow beside me

Let me bed with stars to see

And water from the river

The cowboy life is for me

Just let me ride forever

(Instrumental)

Let the wind blow east or west

And let what ‘ere come ‘ore me

I will face it at my best

Along the trail before me

Gold I don’t seek, fame nor love

Nor some old pal to know me

For all I seek and know of

Is the long trail before me

(Instrumental)

Bring Fall or Winter on me

Though cold become my fingers

Branches bare on all the trees

A cowboy cannot linger

Let the wind blow east or west

And let what ‘ere come ‘ore me

I will face it at my best

Along the trail before me

I’ve Got A Little Lonesome And A Lot Of Blue (Larry W Jones 12/19/2020) (song #7748)

I’ve got a little lonesome and a lot of blue

My mind has come to know that it’s because of you

And only time will tell if I’ll get over you

I’ve got a little lonesome and a lot of blue

My thoughts of you seem to never end

My heart needs a lot of time to mend

My dear, I’ve got a little lonesome

And a lot of blue

(Instrumental)

Sweet dreams still come my way when every twilight starts

Though you’re now far away I hold you in my heart

I’ve got a little lonesome and a lot of blue

I still love someone dear and you know that it’s you

My thoughts of you seem to never end

My heart needs a lot of time to mend

My dear, I’ve got a little lonesome

And a lot of blue

Oh yes, I’ve got a little lonesome

And a lot of blue

I’ve Become Used To The Laughing (Larry W Jones 12/02/2020) (song #7747)

I’ve become used to the laughing

Life has now become a grand ball

There’s no more crying I’m having

It’s you I must thank most of all

I’ve become used to the smiling

You caught me when I had my fall

There’s no more lost love that’s dying

It’s you I must thank most of all

(Instrumental)

I’ve become used to the loving

And I’m in it for the long haul

No more taking without giving

It’s you I must thank most of all

I’ve become used to the laughing

Life has now become a grand ball

There’s no more crying I’m having

It’s you I must thank most of all

I’ve become used to the laughing

It’s you I must thank most of all

Love Came Upon A Blue Monday (Larry W Jones 12/01/2020) (song #7746)

True love came upon a blue Monday

Saturday and Sunday both were gone

Monday was the day I felt alone

But when you came it was not the same

You came on a blue Monday

That fine day in my courtyard

I now hold in high regard

And I know that you do too

(Instrumental)

You made blue Monday my obsession

Now, days of the week equal seven

That I learned in early school lessons

But now I know one is from heaven

Blue Mondays were solitaire

No true love was there to share

Til you came with loving care

On a blue, blue Monday, so rare

True love came upon a blue Monday

On a blue, blue Monday, so rare

Why Did I Say Farewell To Texas (Larry W Jones 11/19/2020) (song #7745)

Why, pardner, why did I say farewell to Texas

Why, tell me why, I’m now in Colorado snow

Why, pardner, why did I say farewell to Texas

Cause there’s a Texas posse after me, I know

With lots of loaded ammo searching high and low

I was a wrangler on a ranch herding cattle in the sun

After counting, the foreman said he was missing ninety one

I had hid ‘em in a gulch and tried to keep ‘em all alive

But then I ran out of grass and mulch and lost the cattle drive

(Instrumental)

Why, pardner, why did I say farewell to Texas

Why, tell me why, I’m now in Colorado snow

Why, pardner, why did I say farewell to Texas

Cause there’s a Texas posse after me I know

With lots of loaded ammo searching high and low

There was a banker in a bank counting dollars one by one

And I heard him holler when I told him that I wanted some

I was wearin’ my bandana across my face and my nose

Now, where that Texas posse came from nobody rightly knows

(Instrumental)

Why, pardner, why did I say farewell to Texas

Why, tell me why, I’m now in Colorado snow

Why, pardner, why did I say farewell to Texas

Cause there’s a Texas posse after me I know

With lots of loaded ammo searching high and low

Yeah, there’s a Texas posse after me I know

With lots of loaded ammo searching high and low

Pardner, that’s why I said farewell to Texas

Men Are Rugged And Rowdy In The West (Larry W Jones 11/18/2020) (song #7744)

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

They get busted and bloodied in the west

They’re some real tall crackers

Cause they’re all bushwhackers

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

Old movies prove they’ve stood the time of test

Their six guns are bigger

They have a hair trigger

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

(Instrumental)

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

They don’t wash their dirty clothes like the rest

Soap and water they shun

They smell rotter in the sun

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

Shootin’ and pluggin’ varmits at their best

One was Johnny Moody

Was no Howdy Doody

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

(Instrumental)

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

And they don’t win no medals for best dressed

Blue skies all turn cloudy

When they all say howdy

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

Pardner, by now I’m sure that you have guessed

They never get all stressed

Hair grows tall on their chest

Men are rugged and rowdy in the west

Searching The Seven Seas For You (Larry W Jones 11/18/2020) (song #7743)

You boarded that ship and then sailed away

You’re somewhere out of sight across the spray

It was anchors aweigh and through the foam

You left me here because you had to roam

My compass heading is spinning around

While I’m searching the seven seas for you

And I’m hoping that I don’t run aground

Dear I’m searching the seven seas for you

(Instrumental)

Sweetheart I know you’re somewhere in a swell

But just where you’ll land only time will tell

Once you were mine but now you sail the brine

I’ve got to say I love you one more time

My compass heading is spinning around

While I’m searching the seven seas for you

And I’m hoping that I don’t run aground

Dear I’m searching the seven seas for you

Yes I’m hoping that I don’t run aground

Dear I’m searching the seven seas for you
