Lone Wolf

Way out in North Dakota, a long ways from my home
 Well I have been gone rambling, been rambling all alone
 I woke in Minnesota, my sleep was fair and fine
 My goal, it is Montana and I'm making real good time
 Well I've grown to love my lonesome ways, I take the old High Line
 Well I walk, I drift, I wander, I am the hard tramp kind
 I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe
 I'm a lone wolf, I go alone
 I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe
 I'm a lone wolf, all alone
 Well down in California, I worked this land of mine
 I've been driving cattle for the brand, drinking is my crime
 Night and day I worked alone, my weary bones they grind
 My hands are chopped from bailing
 hay and I'm wrapped in old barn twine
 My good horse up and died one day, she had enough of trying
 Now I'm old and turning grey, I've been the hard luck kind
 I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe
 I'm a lone wolf, I go alone
 I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe
 I'm a lone wolf, all alone
 Way up in Colorado my home's up in the woods
 And all the folks in Boulder County, they say I am no good
 All my life I've worked the forge, life it is my trade
 And when I'm not working hard, I'm bound to misbehave
 Like a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe
 I'm a lone wolf, I go alone
 I'm a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf babe
 I'm a lone wolf, all alone
