CHORUS:  I'm riding in the desert and  i'm heading into nowhere  The sun is showing me the way  i'm riding alone  I'm looking for adventures cause  i left my girl in texas  I'm a stranger and i'm riding alone  My baby's on his way  and he's got nowhere to stay  and i wonder what his thinking  on his own  He's promised me his heart  and he says he really loves me  and i'll marry him as soon he's  coming home  (chorus)  I'm working as a waitress  the saloon is never empty  i got so many suitors all around  Although some are very handsome  They will never get my hand  because i'm waiting for my cow-  boy to come home
