We hear a strange type of singing called "cowboy throat signing." This is in addition to the yodeling. You'll know what I mean by "strange" when you hear it in the song.

Arthur Miles performs "Lonely Cowboy" (Parts 1 & 2) on Victor V-40156, recorded in Dallas, Texas, on August 8, 1929. A group of jolly cowboys on the Franklin ranch one night, their heads up on a saddle and a campfires burning bright. Some were telling stories and some were singing song, and some were smoking cigarettes while the others rolled along. At once they began to talking of distant friends so dear,. A boy raised his head from his saddle and brushed away a tear... This boy was tall and handsome, and his face showed a life of good cheer. His eyes were all but heavenly blue and he had light wavy hair. We asked him why he left his home, it being so dear to him. He raised his head from his saddle--with tears his eyes grew dim. As he raised his head from the saddle and he gazed a rough cried oar, said "boys, Ill tell you the reason why I stay at home no more." I fell in love with the neighbor's girl Her cheeks was very white Another fellow loved this girl And it ended in a fight This fellow's name was Tommy Smith And we had been great chums We shared each others troubles We shared each other's bond It almost makes me shudder To think of that sad night When Tom and I was quarrelling I stabbed him with my knife I fell on my knees beside him And tried to stop the blood That flowed down so gently It was like crimson flood I can almost hear Tommy's voice As the boys all gathered around Saying "Bob ol' boy you'll remember when I am under the ground" Now boys you know the reason why That I am compelled to roam And why I am so far away from dear old home sweet home Sound file was done by Frank Dalton.
