|
You don't see him much on the big screen anymore
|
Kids don't ride along with Roy or Gene
|
That ain't really him with all those feathers in his hat
|
And some Frenchman's name embroidered on his jeans
|
|
- Chorus -
|
He's still out there riding fences
|
Still makes a living with his rope
|
As long as there's a sunset
|
He'll keep riding for the brand
|
You just can't see him from the road
|
|
He never learned to two-step, hell, he barely learned to walk
|
He's worn a lot of leather off the tree
|
He's had one or two good horses he counts among his friends
|
And he never drew a breath that wasn't free
|
|
(Repeat Chorus)
|
|
He's tall in the saddle, short on the cash
|
The last to quit, the first to buy the beer
|
He's a knight in leather armor still living by a code
|
That's made him what he's been a hundred years
|
|
(Repeat Chorus)
