Lyrics
Still The Same Cowboy
He's winding the watch that his granddaddy gave him
Staring at pictures of an old rodeo
He's rollin' Bull Durham but his fingers are shaky
Time goes on. . . but,
He's Still the Same Cowboy that went ridin' & ropin'
Still the Same Cowboy that took home the prize
Sure, the glory has faded as the years have cascaded
But He's Still the Same Cowboy in his cowgirls' eyes
He's Still the Same Cowboy in his cowgirls' eyes!
He wound up his run with a big win in Denver
His horse was on fire and he rode like the wind
He can't stand as tall and his steps are unsteady
Time goes on. . . but,
He's Still the Same Cowboy that went ridin' & ropin'
Still the Same Cowboy that took home the prize
Sure, the glory has faded as the years have cascaded
But He's Still the Same Cowboy in his cowgirls' eyes
He's Still the Same cowboy in his cowgirls' eyes
Whatever became of the times and the seasons
The moments and months slipped right away
But he's Still the Same Cowboy that went ridin' & ropin'
Still the Same Cowboy that took home the prize
Sure, the glory has faded as the years have cascaded
But he's Still the Same Cowboy in his cowgirls' eyes
He's Still the Same Cowboy in his cowgirls' eyes
He's Still the Same Cowboy in his cowgirls' eyes
