Cowboy in Sweden is a 1970 album by musician Lee Hazlewood. The album was recorded in Sweden, to complement a television production of the same title that Hazlewood starred in. Hazlewood was joined on vocals by Nina Lizell and Suzi Jane Hokom. The songs "The Night Before" and "What's More I Don't Need Her" were previously released in 1969 on the album Forty, and the song "Forget Marie" on the 1968 album Love and Other Crimes.

In November 2016 Light in the Attic Records reissued Cowboy in Sweden on CD and vinyl with added alternate takes of "Pray Them Bars Away" and "Easy and Me", plus the outtake "Me and the Wine and the City Lights".[4]
