about

A song I adapted from an old cowboy song found in some old book.

lyrics

I ain't got no sweetheart
I ain't got no sweetheart
I ain't got no sweetheart
To be there for me

I'm a long ways from home
I'm a long ways from home
I'm a long ways from home
With a long ways to go

I ain't seen my brother
Since I grew out this beard

I ain't seen my mother
Since drowned in beer

I ain't seen my father
Since my checks failed to clear

And if it weren't for this mirror
I'd think no one else was here

I ain't got no sweetheart
I ain't got no sweetheart
I ain't got no sweetheart
To be there for me
To be there for me
Be there for me...
