Lone Wolf

Way out in North Dakota, a long ways from my home Well I have been gone rambling, been rambling all alone I woke in Minnesota, my sleep was fair and fine My goal, it is Montana and I'm making real good time Well I've grown to love my lonesome ways, I take the old High Line Well I walk, I drift, I wander, I am the hard tramp kind I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe I'm a lone wolf, I go alone I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe I'm a lone wolf, all alone Well down in California, I worked this land of mine I've been driving cattle for the brand, drinking is my crime Night and day I worked alone, my weary bones they grind My hands are chopped from bailing Hay and I'm wrapped in old barn twine My good horse up and died one day, she had enough of trying Now I'm old and turning grey, I've been the hard luck kind I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe I'm a lone wolf, I go alone I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe I'm a lone wolf, all alone Way up in Colorado my home's up in the woods And all the folks in Boulder County, they say I am no good All my life I've worked the forge, life it is my trade And when I'm not working hard, I'm bound to misbehave Like a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe I'm a lone wolf, I go alone I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe I'm a lone wolf, all alone
