 Tune Down Step Intro:
 Well we  rode into  town like a  couple of fools
   High on the  mescal,  bent low on my  mule
   I's just trying to  find some place
 Where a  man might get some  rest
 Wash the  tears from my  eyes and the  blood from my  vest
   One  lonesome  saddle,  one  long and  lonesome  ride
   One  lonely  cowboy,  pining  woman  unkind
   Walked into the saloon  on my  feet that felt like  lead
   Cold steel  been pounding  into the back of my  head
   I raise up  my glass to the  quick and to the  dead
 Singing  yeah a  heavy, and a  bottle of  bread
   One  lonesome  saddle,  one  long and  lonesome  ride
   One  lonely  cowboy,  pining  woman  unkind
   As the glass it left my  lips,  I felt her hand  upon me
   Her smile it was  so warm, but her  eyes were so  cold
   She says to me  now, won't you  please walk beside  me
   I just shut my  mouth, and I  did as I was  told
   One  lonesome  saddle,  one  long and  lonesome  ride
   One  lonely  cowboy,  pining  woman
 cold hearted  woman,  pining  woman  unkind
