A Cowboy Has to Sing

When each new day is born, I go ridin' (yippi-a)
For the wide open plains, I roam (yippi-o)
Til the sun, to the hills goes hidin' (yippi-a)
There will always be someone glad when I come home

(Yippi-aaa, yippi-ohh)
(End of day, home we go)

For a cowboy has to sing (yodel-dee)
And a cowboy has to yell (we-e-ooo)
Or his heart would break inside of him
At the gates of the home corral

Now the long day is through on the prairie (yippi-a)
There's a low hangin' sun in the sky (yippi-o)
'Round the home corral, we will tarry (yippi-a)
And we'll sing of the round-ups in the days gone by

(Yippi-aaa, yippi-ohh)
(End of day, home we go)

For a cowboy has to sing (yodel-dee)
And a cowboy has to yell (we-e-ooo)
Or his heart would break inside of him
At the gates of the home corral

There's a tired pony glad that it's over (yippi-a)
With a song in my heart, so am I (yippi-o)
For tonight, we'll be dreaming of clover (yippi-a)
And we always will until the day we die

(Yippi-aaa, yippi-ohh)
(End of day, home we go)

For a cowboy has to sing (yodel-dee)
And a cowboy has to yell (we-e-ooo)
Or his heart would break inside of him
At the gates of the home corral

(Yippi-aaa, yippi-ohh)
(End of day, home we go)

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, home we go)
(Yippi-a, yippi-o)
(End of day, home we go)
