Little fellow you're so tired
C5                 B5
You can hardly lift your head
D5                 A5
But you wanna hear a story
D5     G5       C5
Before you go to bed
C5             B5
So if you'll be quiet
C5             A5
And listen patiently
D5             D5
I'll sing you a song
D5           G5
That my mother sang to me


C5               D5
Little cowboy, put your saddle in the barn
G5                         C5
Tie your horse up tight, so he'll know no harm
F5                 F5
Put your hat and your gun
C5                 A5
Beside you on the chair
D5             G5                  G5
Don't forget, you've got to say a little prayer
C5                  D5
Little cowboy, you'd better hit the sandman trail
F5                    F5                A5
Or you'll be late for roundup time you know
F5               F5             C5            A5
If you wanna be a cowboy, you'd better rest a while
D5            G5            C5     A5
Little cowboy baby of the old corral
