There was a lonely cowboy
With a heart so brave and true
He learned to love a maiden
With eyes of heaven's own blue
They learned to love each other
Your sweetheart waits for you Jack
Your sweetheart waits for you
Out on the lonely prairie
Your sweetheart waits for you
Jack left the camp next morning,
Your sweetheart waits for you Jack,
Your sweetheart waits for you
Out on the lonely prairie
Where skies are always blue
