Well let me just tell ya this story here right
away
Of what is a cowboy and how he spends his day
He may spend it ridin horses some broke and some
green
Or workin with the cattle or workin on
machines
He may be out fixin the fence way out back
Or sittin in the tack room repairing some tack
He cares for his living for none would he
trade
To change this lifestyle or the choices he
made
The outdoors is his office and for that he is
glad
And being a cowboy just ain't that darn bad
He lives by the morals by which he was raised
And by some he is scorned and others he's
praised
Sure you may understand him but most folks they
don't
And to really get to know him well most folks
they
won't
He'll keep to himself and he likes it that
way
And he'll just thank the Lord when he rises each
day
See he's not in it for glory or getting rich
quick,
He's in it for the lifestyle that he has
picked
So when you see a cowboy in your travels one
day
Tip your hat and smile and a kind word do say
For we really ain't much different from most folk
you see
Just the size of our office and the fact we are
free
