Now [F] listen to my story, [Bb] I will sing you a song,
[C] And I try to do my best not making it too [F] long.
Please, fellas, treat me gently, [Bb] for I'm a little shy,
I'm not accustomed to see people, I just tell you [C] why.
_ I'm [F] a lone, _ _ _
[C] _ _ lonesome rider.
[F] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ It's hard to be a [C] hard man like [F] me. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] Mama was Portuguese and [Bb] my daddy was from Rome.
[C] She was almost a giant, but she took a [F] gnome from me.
They took it with their [Bbm] marriage duty.
[G] Mama survived, _ but the daddy unfortunately [C] didn't.
A little later I came and [Bbm] said, Mama, how are you?
[C] But Mama was confused and just [E] said, We [F] know you.
I said, a lone, _ [C] _ _ _ [F] lonesome rider. _ _ _ _ _ _
It's hard to [C] be a hard man [F] like me.
_ _ _ _ _ Mama didn't mourn for long about the [Bb] poor, dead dwarf.
She sighed [C] several times, Oh, my God, and then [F] she was over the mountain.
She looked around and [Bb] soon found the next man,
[G] A farmer from Kentucky, and he was praying [C] to her.
Mother [F] listened to his plea [Bb] and she took me under her arm,
[C] And we went to the States to the guy on [F] the farm.
I thought, great, then there's only [Bb] chewing gum instead of drops today.
[C] You finally learn to ride, but farmers are [F] just slobs.
A Mercedes and a bike, [Bb] that was all there was.
[G] But not a single gall, not even half on [C] the wall.
Just a cow, she had to shelter you, [Bb] because that's what the need wanted.
[C] And also learn to shoot something, just for the household [F] use.
I'm a lone, [C] _ _ _ [F] lonesome rider. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's hard to [C] be a hard man [F] like me.
_ _ _ [C] _ The cow jumped over [Bb] the fence one day and went on tour,
And [C] ran straight to the Mercedes, which was on the farm.
[F] _ I already spoke English well at the time [Bb] and explained to my boss,
[G] Man, the cow jumped over the fence and then rammed [C] your Benz. _
He took that as a lesson [Bb] and he yelled at me,
[C] Pack your things and get away from here, you son of a [F] gun.
I swung on the bike, [Bb] only took my gun with me,
[C] And rode off to the west, it was a terrible [F] ride.
With the bike through the desert, [Bb] seldom cinema, never women,
[G] 20 miles an hour, all the highways [C] up and down.
And if someone came to me, then [Bb] he was not lucky.
I [C] pulled the colt out of my way and the other [F] stayed behind.
I'm a lone, _ _ [C] _ _ _ [F] lonesome rider. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's hard to be [C] a hard man [F] like me.
_ _ _ _ _ [C] I [F] came to the Rocky [Bb] Mountains, that means mountains in German,
[C] And went to a bar, of course still [F] alone.
I called, bring something to drink, [Bb] boys, otherwise I'll see black for you.
[C] The order in the [G] Rockies is done differently than in the Harz.
Then [F] I saw a girl [Bb] I had never seen before,
And [C] she said, come up with me, and I murmured, [F] well, fine.
She kissed me with fire, [Bb] sometimes even in the face,
And [C] said, honey, listen, let's make a stone [F] and iron bridge.
But our love, it [Bb] never breaks in two.
I [G] said, fine, great thing, I have to go now, [C] goodbye.
If I stay here any longer, [Bb] I'll break down,
And cry [C]
not when it rains, stay healthy, [F] dum-dum.
I'm a lone, _ [C] _ _ lonesome [F]
rider.
_ _ _ _ _ It's hard to [C] be a hard man [F] like me.
_ _ _ _ [C] _ [F] I deliberately passed every [Bb] obstacle,
_ _ [C] And thought, so [Am] you can stay, you are lonely, [F] but free.
But the man who allegedly guides the [Bb] skill of all,
_ [G] Usually guides things a little differently than [C] you think.
On [F] the way to San Francisco, someone spoke [Bb] to me again.
Hey [C] boy, I need a really hard [F] man for my business.
I was afraid to shoot, which [Bb] is always unreasonable,
And [C] went with him to his company.
Today I am a [F] procurator.
I have a wife and a few children, and [Bb] my bike is in the stable.
[G] Occasionally I oil the cross, so it stays fresh in any [C] case.
I [F] am happy and satisfied, but [Bb] I am not happy.
[C] And if no one hears it, then I sing quietly in the office.
[F] I'm a lone, _ _ _ lonesome rider.
