Lyrics
When I was a child I used to pretend
The prairie was out the front door
From the first light of dawn to the light at day?s end
(I was) Tall in the saddle and hard to ignore
And I would holster my pistols, jangle my spurs? take every chance I could get
To holster my pistols, jangle my spurs?and ride my horse into the sunset
But somehow the sunrise started to change
And when I got Old, I can?t say
But time isn?t mine like it was on the range
and I guess that the west can?t be won in one day
Wish I could holster my pistols, jangle my spurs?tell me it ain?t over yet
Just holster my pistols, and jangle my spurs?and ride my horse into the sunset
With a kiss from Miss Kitty and a shine to my star
The outlaw inside me said ?nothing?s too far?
I?d ride all day, I?d ride all night, swore I?d ride for the rest of my life
Well some say the cowboy is a thing of the past
Now that all the good ghost towns are gone
But I hold my dreams like those reins in my grasp
And take off like lightning to prove them all wrong
And I?ll holster my pistols, jangle my spurs? take back the things I regret
I?ll holster my pistols, jangle my spurs?and ride my horse into the sunset
Holster my pistols, jangle my spurs?days I would never forget
Holster my pistols, jangle my spurs?and ride my horse into the sunset
