Lyrics
Last of the Cowboys
I'll never live on the prairie
I won't have a home on the range
I'll never be free and between you and me
I'm ready for some things to change
'Cos I'm far from the wide open places
Where a man can shoot, rope, and ride
And the stars shine so bright, I could get my head right
With 'nought but a horse by my side
Chorus:
And if I were last of the cowboys
If I could live over again
I'd ramble and roam and drive the cows home
Hanging on tight to the reins
I want to camp by the fire
Where a man can never do wrong
I could watch the moon climb, and while away my time
With a guitar and a good country song
Now I'm longing to get back to the country
Where the hawk and the eagle take flight
I'd like to stay where the sun shines all day
And the coyotes howl through the night
