Sayin' goodbye lyrics

I watched every sun up comin' over my tin cup

Seen every moon changin' while I slept with the sky

Felt the chill in the north wind, find holes that I can't mend

This West Texas cowboy is wrest less again

Campfire light dancin' on the smiles of some good friends

Wearin' the hard times in the lines on their faces

Now the seasons are changin' and it's time I was leavin'

'Cause this West Texas cowboy is wrest less again

So I'm sayin' goodbye, ridin' away

Sayin' goodbye again

I'm wishin' you well, miss you until

I come back again next year

Let's sing of the good days and drink to the ladies

Till the whiskey's all gone and their pleasure is mine

Come sit here beside me, sweet lullaby me

This West Texas cowboy is wrest less again

Sayin' goodbye, ridin' away

Sayin' goodbye again

Wishin' you well, miss you until

I come back again next year

Sayin' goodbye, ridin' away

Sayin' goodbye again

Wishin' you well, I'll miss you until

I come back again next year

Sayin' goodbye, ridin' away

Sayin' goodbye again

I'm wishin' you well, miss you until

I come back again next year
