I ain't got no father, I ain't got no father, I ain't got no father To buy the clothes I wear. Chorus I'm a poor lonesome cowboy, I'm a poor lonesome cowboy, I'm a poor lonesome cowboy, And a long way from home. I ain't got no mother, I ain't got no mother, I ain't got no mother To mend the clothes I wear. I ain't got no sister, I ain't got no sister, I ain't got no sister To go and play with me. I ain't got no brother, I ain't got no brother, I ain't got no brother To ride the range with me. I ain't got no sweetheart, I ain't got no sweetheart, I ain't got no sweetheart To sit and talk to me.
