Restless cattle, stop your millin' round It's time to go to sleep While I tell you bout some secrets This poor cowboy has to keep You won't understand, but still I'd like To get it off my chest Restless cattle, now it's time to get some rest. If I show you what I carry Will you promise not to laugh? If another tear drop falls and stains Her faded photograph Only you know how I feel inside Only you know that I weep Restless cattle, settle down, it's time to sleep. What's this, you've stopped your millin' Can it be you understand That a cowboy cries like any other man? Guess my story must have touched you cause You're all standin' around Restless cattle, now it's time for beddin' down. Guess my story must have touched you cause You're all standin' around
