The Cowboy Song Lyrics - In Pieces - 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 

There were all the nights you couldn't sleep 

'Cause 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, yippie 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' Dunny to his death 

And we sang Bringing in the Sheep 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
