send me on home boys the cattle retire   wind up the mountain is blowin' in my ears   been 7 weeks now I home once again   warm meal some whiskey let the wild games begin      seven card stud is the deal I require   with outlaws and beggars and lawmens and liars   whiskey will flow until the damn runs dry   make 'em grow crazy with that fire in their eyes      (chorus)   My fortune was made but I've lost it twice   My timing was off every time I tried   When all circumstances have worn me thin   I take my last chance and I'm home again   if the timing were right I'd stay with you tonight...      the ladies are dancing and spinnin' round   smoke rings and big dreams will lay you right down   soon I'll be leaving this magic behind   to the dust of my cattle with too much sunshine      send me on home boys the cattle retire   wind up the mountain is blowin' in my ears   been 7 weeks now I home once again   warm meal some whiskey let the wild games begin      (chorus)
