Songs About / On: COWBOY

When you hear that I'm a cowboy
And I work the cattle trail
You probably assume I'm big and tough (big and tough)
But the trail's worn me down
I don't wanna hang around read more »

Seven hundred head of cattle on an old forgotten trail
Six cowboys and one old man in another day of hell
Chuckwagon lagging behind from the strain of a broken wheel
The only thing to look forward to was a campfire and a meal
Asleep beneath an open sky with just the stars above their heads
A saddle for a pillow and some sagebrush for a bed
Waking up tomorrow was merely down by chance
Back when the west was wild and cowboys didn’t dance read more »

Some boys with warm beds and cold, cold hearts
Can make you feel nothing at all
They’ll never remember and they’ll never mind
If you’re counting the cracks in the wall
They’re quick and they’re greedy
They never feel guilty
They don’t know the meaning of hurt
The boots just go back on
The socks that had stayed on
The next time they see you
They treat you like dirt
The next time they treat you like dirt read more »

Riding on the ranch
I've got my hat on

I've got my boots dusty.
I've got my saddle on my horse read more »

N: Are there any more real cowboys
N: Left out in these hills
N: Will the fire hit the iron one more time
N: And will one more dusty pick-up
N: Come rolling down the road
N: With a load of feed before the sun gets high
N: Well, I hope that working cowboy never dies read more »

One brave cowboy
One brave man
who gave his own life and
she'll never see him again
high school sweetheart
frendship ring
and when they would pass by
ya know the birds would surely sing
country came calling
and took his life
when the news hit home
t'was the middle of the night
one brave cowboy
one brave man
gave his own life and
she'll never see him again
one brave cowboy
one brave man
gave his own life and
she'll never see him again read more »
