<b>Jessie</b> by <i>Randy Meadows</i><br />

Jessie was a lonesome cowboy

All he knew was rope and ride

And when the trail ran near town

His friends and him would drink a round

Cause it’s a little too long to be a long time gone without her

Just a decade ago he left her

Headed for the a wild, wild west

Never once did it cross his mind

That there would ever be a time

It’s a little too long to be a long time gone without her

When the winter wind blows cold

That’s when he wishes he could hold her tight

All the gold in California

Doesn’t shine like the eyes

Of the girl he left behind

That forever haunts his mind

Cause it’s a little too long to be a long time gone without her

There’s a gathering on the hillside

To lay ole Jesse down to rest

And on the coffin was a rose

Placed by a women no one knows

It’s a little too long to be a long time gone without her

Jesse was a lonesome cowboy
