Cowboy's Delight Lyrics - John Denver

This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the Windsong album, and has also been released on the Country Classics album. 

Sing songs of the sunrise into the night 

The stars as your timepiece, make it all right 

Make friends with the darkness, talk to the moon 

And when the light lifts, you can let out a tune 

I've been to the mountains, climbed through the sky 

Shouldered their whiteness, watched their gold fly 

Shared in their treasures, shook at their might 

Spoke softly of wonders, Cowboy's Delight 

Sing songs of the sunrise into the night 

A song of the mountain, Cowboy's Delight 

The stars as your timepiece will make it all right 

Sing songs of the mountains, Cowboy's Delight
