I'm just a workin' cowboy this ranch I'm on ain't mine

But I got a bed in the bunk houseand a place come supper time

I don't get much for wages but it's good enough for me

Maybe I don't own this place but mister I've got the key

Just a thirty dollar cowboy and I ride the lone prairie

The good Lord knows I'm happy cause I'm where I want to be

Well I ain't got much of nothing but I got about all I need

Just a thirty dollar cowboy with a million dollar dream

Someday I'm gonna buy a place that I can call my own

Find me a pretty lady and build us a little home

Until that day I'm gonna save all the wages I can

Who knows I may just buy this place and stay right where I am

Just a thirty dollar cowboy...

Just a thirty dollar cowboy...

I'm just a thirty dollar cowboy with a million dollar dream
