It's been another long day
in the saddle, and
my back and my butt
both hurt.

Cattle millin' and
dust a'rising,
ropin' and draggin' and brandin'
make a long day's work.

So the campfire looks good,
with coffee bubblin' away,
and the food, and my blanket
are a'callin' to me.

But when I lie down,
before I close my eyes,
I long for home fires,
and my bed, and you.
