Lyrics for I Got No Use For The Women by Marty Robbins:
| | | Artist: | Marty Robbins |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | I Got No Use For The Women | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 95 | | | | Lyrics: | I've got no use for the women
A true one may seldom be found
They'll use a man for his
money
When it's gone they'll turn him down
They're all alike at the bottom
Selfish
and grasping for all
They'll stay by a man when he's winning
And laugh in his face when he
falls
My pal was an honest young puncher
Honest and upright and true
Till he
turned to a gun shooting gambler
On account of a girl named Lou
They fell in with evil
companions
The kind that are better off dead
When a gambler insulted her picture
He
filled him full of lead
Off in the long night they trailed him
Through misquete and
thick chapperal
I couldn't help think of that woman
As I saw him pitch and fall
If
she'd been the pal that she should have
He might have been rasing a son
Instead of out
there on the prairie
To die by a Ranger's gun
Death's sharp sting did not
trouble
His chances for life were too slim
Where they were putting his body
Was all
that worried him
He lifted his head on his elbow
The blood from his wound flowed
red
He gazed at his friends gathered round him
He looked up at them and he
said
Bury me out on the prairie
Where the coyotes can howl o'er my grave
Bury
me out on the prairie
But from them, my bones please save
Wrap me up in a
blanket
Bury me deep in the ground
Cover me over with boulders
Of granite, big and
brown
We buried him out on the prairie
Where the coyotes can howl o'er his
grave
His soul is now a-resting
Fron the unkind cut she gave
And many another young
puncher
As he rides past the pile of stones
Recalls some similar woman
And thinks of
his moulderin' bones | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
