Tumbling Tumbleweeds was a song that I believe originated with the Sons of the Pioneers, which included Roy Rogers. I don't know if that song was in City Slickers or not.
Tumbleweed
? 1986 Nancy Vogl
Performed by Nancy Vogl
Sitting in the bugs and buzzing
corn fields, heartbroken
Your satchel’s chugging southbound
upon the morning train
Gave my heart to this dark drifter
So fancy free
Now I’ve paid the price for being
just as nice as I can be
And I’m kicking dust and rusty nails
And wondering why the rails can’t pass you by
This time around the bend
Tumbleweed
You’re a bold and evil
Devil-driven man
You think I’d sell my soul just to see you again
Well, I should have known a loving home
Couldn’t keep you from traveling
Like whiskey and gambling
Lord, it drives a man insane
And there ain’t a thing in this wide world
That will keep you from that rambling
'Cause your love is riding shotgun
on that Colorado train
And I’m kicking dust and rusty nails
And I’m wondering why the rails
Won’t pass you by this time around the bend
Tumbleweed
You’re a bold and evil Devil-driven man
You think I’d sell my soul just to see you again
No one could ever top the stories that you tell
Though I’ve heard them all before,
you do them oh so well
I wanted to believe I was under your spell
But now I know it’s nothing more
Than adios and faretheewell
And I’m kicking dust and rusty nails
And I’m wondering why the rails
Can’t leave you by my side for one more day
Tumbleweed
You’re a woe-be-gotten son of yesterday
And my love will die with you so far away
My love will die with you so far away

Bill Miller-"Tumble Weed"
Far across the Mississippi and out on the open plains
In an Oklahoma cow town where the sky begins to rain
In a dusty run-down honky tonk sits a drifting tumbleweed
Thumbing through a magazine that he can't even read
Now tumbleweed remembers how the west was won and lost
The homestead act and the dust bowl, everybody paid the cost
And the great white father promised to treat his children all the same
Back when Indian territory was Oklahoma's name
Oh tumbleweed keep rollin', he just roams from town to town
It ain't easy for a half-breed kid to try and settle down
Tumbleweed keep rollin', he can't find no place to rest
Yeah the desert wind blows tumbleweed like some spirit of the west
Well his boot heals tap in time to an old flat top guitar
And he's a guitar local hero and he sings straight from the heart
And his tip jar just a jungle of worn old dollar bills
He makes his rent and grocery in the local bar and grill
When he starts to picking that old guitar you know the people turn and
stare
When he starts to sing the songs he wrote wells there's magic in the air
Cause his song can heal your wounded heart, he can set you spirit free
He can raise you hopes to be the very best that you can be
Oh tumbleweed keep rollin', he just roams from town to town
It ain't easy for a half-breed kid to try and settle down
Tumbleweed keep rollin', he can't find no place to rest
Yeah the desert wind blows tumbleweed like some spirit of the west
So if you cross the Mississippi, you head out on the open plain
And you pass through Oklahoma and the sky begins to rain
And you feeling kind of rootless, you can't find no place to rest
Just remember tumbleweed, he's the spirit of the west
Oh the desert blows old tumbleweed like some spirit of the west
