Karaoké The Cowboy Song Garth Brooks

Pushin' horns weren't easy like the movie said it was

And I don't recall no dance hall girls or hotel rooms with rugs

You worked hot and tired and nasty

Rode your pony's head too low

And there were all the nights you couldn't sleep 'cos it was too damn cold

And you'd sing

Strawberry Roan and Little Joe

Like the time we hit the river and the rains began to fall

And the water was risin' so damn fast we thought it'd drown us all

We lost a lot of steers that day and four to five good mounts

But when all the boys rode into camp we knew that's what counts

And we sang

Yippee Ti Yi Yay and Amazing Grace

Or the night they broke behind us and then took us by surprise

I whistled out to Bonner

I seen the terror in his eyes

And he rode for all his horse would ride and I know he done his best

But he crossed over Jordan ridin' Donny to his death

And we sang

Bringing in the Sheaves and The Rugged Cross

So when you see the cowboy he's not ragged by his choice

He never meant to bow them legs or put that gravel in his voice

He's just chasin' what he really loves and what's burnin' in his soul

Wishin' to God that he'd been born a hundred years ago

Still singin'

Strawberry Roan and Little Joe
