Lyrics
(Folk song)
Oh I’m a Texas cowboy so far away from home.
If I get back to Texas I never more shall roam.
Montana is too cold for me, the winters are too long.
Before the round ups do begin our money is all gone.

This poem was on the back of a Cisco Kid comic book around 1952. Every word is still in my brain.
